UI::Dialog::Backend::Nautilus(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation UI::Dialog::Backend::Nautilus(3pm)
NAME
UI::Dialog::Backend::Nautilus
SYNOPSIS
use UI::Dialog::Backend::Nautilus;
my $nautilus = new UI::Dialog::Backend::Nautilus ();
my @paths = $nautilus->paths();
ABSTRACT
UI::Dialog::Backend::Nautilus is simply an OOPerl wrapper around the data provided by the nautilus(1) file manager's scripts feature.
DESCRIPTION
nautilus(1) is a GNOME file manager that has a "right-click" menu for user made scripts (found in the user's ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/
directory). This is an OOPerl interface to the environment variables provided to the scripts during runtime by nautilus. When you use any
of the UI::Dialog meta classes (UI::Dialog, UI::Dialog::GNOME, etc.) access to this backend is provided via the $d->nautilus method. ie:
replace $nautilus with $d->nautilus in the synopsis example (provided you made $d with something like my $d = new UI::Dialog...). Also,
UI::Dialog and friends only load this module when you first use the $d->nautilus method (this may silently fail, but you can test by ref()
for success).
