  Description     : A Gnome Files (Nautilus) extension for creating selection
context menu entries that can execute arbitrary commands

A "replacement" for the now-defunct filemanager/nautilus-actions project.

The extension supports many of the most commonly used features of the defunct
project, including:

* structuring context menu items for Nautilus File Manager selections including
nested sub menus filtering the displayed items based on:
* number of files in the selection,
* mimetypes of the selected files (matching and non-matching conditions
supported, as well as mimetype globs)
* basic filetypes of the selected files - e.g. 'file', 'directory', 'symbolic-
link' ... - (matching and non-matching conditions supported)
* execution of an arbitrary command/script when a menu item is activated

A configuration application by the name "Actions For Nautilus Configurator" is
installed into the desktop applications collection.
On first use of the configurator, if no existing configuration file is found,
the delivered sample configuration will be installed.

Maintenance should be trivial (it's a tiny extension) and I intend to provide
that myself (though collaborators are always welcome).

Translation is an issue - this is entirely in English at the moment.

I am looking for a sponsor, of course.
