Ubuntu Repositories: File Browser Applet
July 7th, 2009
File Browser Applet is an applet for the GNOME Panel. It lets you browse and open files in your computer directly from the panel, without having to open a file manager. It is not intended as replacement to proper file managers like nautilus. Sometimes you just want to open a file and don’t want to have to open a file manager, browse to and open the file, then close the file manager. This Applet just saves you couple of clicks.
