Description Christoph Eckert 2003-09-29 01:16:51 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.3)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

When having symlinks to files, it would be very useful to have an option in the context menu 'Show Original File' which will open a file manager with the directory containing the file to which the symlink points to and highlights this file.

This is included in the Mac OS desktop and ofte nis very useful and prevents the user from searching the properties diealog and typing the correct URL.

I'd like to have this feature too.

Comment 2 Leon Freitag 2006-04-08 10:28:41 UTC
