(Get the code!)
Hello, I would like to add 2 cents to this thread:
1) The remark made by "David Siegel" is incorrect.
The request is *not* to implement: <<Intelligent file copy optimization>>, but simply to queue the files to copy so that they're copied sequentially.
If I select 2 files and drag them across two "locations", these two files will be copied sequentially.
If I drag the two files one after the other, the copy will occur concurrently - as a result, the time that it takes to copy the two files will be significantly longer. This should be changed so that the files are copied sequentially even in this case.
2) The behavior of Nautilus is the same as Windows Explorer. There are several tools in Windows (e.g.: TotalCommander) which implement this auto queuing. I mention this because this proves that the implementation is certainly possible.
