Linux Mint Cinnamon (Nemo) integration

[idielcfg]

Hello i love ultracopier, i think it is a tool that most linux desktop users appreciate. In my case i use Linux Mint 20.04 and it would be grate if it can be integrated with Nemo. There is any possibility to have these in future version?

Hi,
I have already requested to Nemo, but for now refused by Nemo.
You can request it again if you want

Seems that Nemo complains about qt being the major reason it "won't work"..... what about dolphin then instead for qt DE's like KDE?

[alphaonex86]

no, all the base code is C, the unix socket is just a unix socket, and work with other file manager in Qt, GTK, windows, ...
I my case I daily use with PCMan File Manager and PCMan File Manager Qt.

I just posted this modification of Nemo-Ultracopier, which fixes the integration between Nemo and Ultracopier, and uses CopyQ to make the actual copy.

Caveat is: Sometimes initally you'll need to perform the Copy/Paste operation twice because,
the first time you run the script CopyQ will not be running (unless you launch it manually), and so it won't be able to capture the clipboard contents..

The second time you perform Copy/"Paste with Ultracopier" copyq will be running, and the script will work as intended.

It works perfectly here with: Debian (trixie) + KDE Plasma/Wayland + latest stock Nemo + Ultracopier + CopyQ.
(Gnome and Mate are installed too but not running)

This is probably not a definitive solution,
but maybe there's something we can learn about it, and can be implemented in a more definitive one.

ok, how use it?
excuting it say me:
Usage: nemo-ultracopier.py <destination_directory>
I have too the same config, if work well I can start copyq via ultracopier

[ernzo]

Well, first you need to install Nemo-Ultracopier, (and CopyQ)
and then replace the original nemo-ultracopier.py with the new version.. located at /home/USER/.local/share/nemo/actions/

Then use chmod to grant permission to execute the file /home/USER/.local/share/nemo/actions/nemo-ultracopier.py

The regular installation procedure is detailed in the Nemo-Ultracopier itself:

Ok, I miss reading something, my file manager is dolphin, then not apply.

I just published a similar Action script for Dolphin..
it uses CopyQ to Paste the clipboard contents with Ultracopier.

It works perfecly in Debian (trixie) Plasma/Wayland + latest stock CopyQ & Ultracopier.
