Thanks for your responses. Ritesh is talking about gvfs, you, Jasper, about gtk. Could you clarify how they work together? As for the application: Generally I need this feature when trying to upload something onto a website using Chromium. Pressing the upload button on the website then opens the "Open file" window [1]. However, I am not sure which program provides this window. As for the file manager, I am using Nautilus. So, is there any way how I can tell the window to accept remote files?
