Indeed. None of them is the complete solution. See: http://lists.gnome.org/archives/nautilus-list/2003-December/msg00264.html Content sniffing is very useful (and does not kill the performance) in many tasks: 1. Mail clients: checking type of mail attachments 2. Web browsers: discovering type of downloaded files from broken web servers 3. File manager: figuring out how to open an unknown file This list is far from complete. Content sniffing is only not good when used massively, in batch, like nautilus+gnomevfs does now. -- Fabio Gomes de Souza <fabio@xxxxxxxxxx> (+55 81 9127-0597) .- GS2 TECNOLOGIA DA INFORMACAO LTDA :: www.gs2.com.br |- IT Infrastructure :: Security :: Embedded systems :: Linux `- Olinda, Brazil - +55 81 3492-7777 - negocios@xxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
