I need this with caja

Can it be easily ported to work with caja?

have you tried sudo apt-get install caja-open-terminal? remember to run caja -q to test it.

@Stunkymonkey Thank you for responding. I already had that but I needed to launch another terminal with sixel support. I attempted to add a right click context menu via caja-action-configuration tool but I failed to launch it in the current directory, instead it would open it in the parent directory. Today I managed to fix it via a trick:

   bash -c "gnome-terminal --working-directory=$( echo "$1" | cut -b 8- )"

I congrat you on your project. Regards.

caja is indeed a fork of nautilus.

maybe you can look at the source code of those projects and integrate them somehow. so I you manage to support caja as well, I am open for contributions.

@trappedinspacetime how should we proceed here? Maybe it is possible to maintain a project supporting both. But in the long run if they are diverging I am not planing to support both.

@Stunkymonkey I'm sorry I am late at responding to you. I agree with you about it should be possible to port it to Caja. Today I tried to port it to work with Caja but I failed. Caja also provide python3-caja python-caja-common but they may differ in paths and class names. I noticed it when I needed to port gedit plugins to pluma plugins. I am alien to Python. I need to debug and test it but it's beyond my coverage for the time being. I am sorry since I can not be of help. caja-action-configuration method works well. I 'll inform you when I have any progress. Regards.
