I am not looking at switching from Gnome to another desktop

hamstrung it for drag-n-drop. I have worked with it for a couple
weeks now, and there are a number of DnD operations I do that just
don't work.  In some cases, between two Nautilus windows I can kind
of live with how DnD functions without tree view, but even that is
hit and miss (constant changing of focus to where you are dropping,
for example of bad behaviour).

On the Gnome list i was told tree view was deprecated.  No plugins,
and I don't know how to even begin writing one.  BTW, I DO turn on
'Navigate folders in a tree' view, but that is only half of tree
view.

So what alternative is there to Nautilus.  I went searching via
yumex, I did not see any obvious other file browser.  Seems there
use to be a number of them?


Try 'nemo', it's a fork of Nautilus used in the Cinnamon desktop. IIRC
it still has the tree view.

Yes it does! Thanks for the pointer. Will work with it now, and see how it goes. Will have to see if I can tweak Gnome so that when I insert a USB drive, it starts Nemo rather than Nautilus.
