I think it may be in GNOME CVS. FAM is used by various parts of the
desktop, e.g. you need it for nautilus to notice if you move files
around, and for the theme control panel to notice when you install a
theme, and so forth.
Well, is it supposed to notice new files downloaded to a directory? For
example, if I d/l files to a directory, and have an open nautilus window
in that dir, I have to manually "reload" the window before the new file
shows, no matter if sgi_fam is on or not.
Ok, I have to ask, what's the status for GNOME menu editing? What state
will it be in for FC2 and which release do you foresee full
functionality for this?
