Hey Mo

Another option is to use the Nautilus side bar on the
left. At the moment it shows either Information or
Places, right? Well click the drop-down box and one of
the options is Tree, to give you a tree view in your
side bar.

And while not ideal perhaps, it means you don't need
another application to do the job.

Hi Ad

You are right it is not ideal. However, I have installed Gnome Commander and have to say for me it will do the job admirably. However, as you may know I do help a few people with Linux and they are not advanced users. It should be OK for them to open two windows and drag 'n' drop file etc across.

Mo
