Installing Nautilus scripts is a somewhat tedious process so it is best to install a script that will automatically install the scripts. However, we continue with the same problem, we have to install at least one script in that boring way.
Thus, to install a script we should do the following process:
- copy the script into the home folder;
- go to terminal and write:
cp [script's name] ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
- and then write (please note that the script's name is attached to the slash "/"):
chmod u+x ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/[script's name]
As I said earlier, it’s best for you to install a script that installs scripts, so here’s a hint:
- Download this file;
- Copy the file into the home folder;
- Open the terminal application;
- Write:
cp make-nautilus-script ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
- and write:
chmod u+x ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/make-nautilus-script
And that’s it, from now on when it’s necessary to install a script, just click on the right mouse button on the file you want to install and choose scripts->make-nautilus-script.
Note that I found the file on the site http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/, which has many other scripts.
