Use Qubes context actions (copy-to-vm, etc.) in the Nemo file manager

If you prefer Nemo to Thunar (and who wouldn’t :)), I have made a repository that lets you use Qubes-specific context menu options (copying, moving to VMs, dispVMs, trusted file generation) for Nemo!

Check out the repo here:

I’ve updated the repository with:

  1. Additional UI/UX changes to match (and surpass :slight_smile: ) the equivalent UI/UX in Thunar
  2. An additional action (Edit in Other Qube)

Very nice. You might convince me to use nemo just to get rid of the wrong “Open in other qube” :slight_smile:

Actually, the ellipsis can’t be enforced because only dom0 controls the dialog and I’m pretty sure I have some qubes where such actions would require no ellipsis.

Fair point. Personally, I’d still go with the ellipsis as I presume very few people actually set up policies that would allow for that and dialogs will then be the default behavior, but it seems there’s no one-size-fits-all solution.
