Description pier andre 2009-11-06 15:36:59 UTC 
Version:           3 (using KDE 4.3.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

When you copy or move a group of files from a folder to another where exists some file with the same name of the ones you are copying appears a windows where there is the options "overwrite all" and "skip all", well the appearing of this window depends when the first file with the same name start to copy, it should be very useful that this window would appear at the beginning of the operation of copying, becouse if I'm copying a group of files where among them there is a file with the same name I have to wait the starting of the first matching name file to have the possibility to skip or overwrite all the files, if the window would appear at the beginning I can make this choice right away leaving my pc working and me have my coffee break.:-)
ciao
Pierluigi
