<title>File manager behavior preferences</title>
22
<p>You can control whether you single-click or double-click files, whether
23
folders are opened in new windows, how executable text files are handled,
24
and the trash behavior. In any file manager window, click
25
<guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Preferences</gui></guiseq> and select the
26
<gui>Behavior</gui> tab.</p>

<title>Behavior</title>
32
<title><gui>Single click to open items</gui></title>
33
<title><gui>Double click to open items</gui></title>
34
<p>By default, clicking selects files and double-clicking opens them.
35
You can instead choose to have files and folders open when you click on
36
them once. When you use single-click mode, you can hold down the
37
<key>Ctrl</key> key while clicking to select one or more files.</p>
40
<title><gui>Open each folder in its own window</gui></title>
41
<p>When you open a folder in the file manager, it will normally open in
42
the same window. You can right-click a folder and select <gui>Open in
43
New Window</gui> to open any single folder in a new window. If you often
44
do this, select this option if you would rather have each folder open
45
in its own window by default.</p>

<section id="executable">
51
<title>Executable text files</title>
52
<p>An executable text file is a file that contains a program that you can run (execute). The <link xref="nautilus-file-properties-permissions">file permissions</link> must also allow for the file to run as a program. The most common are Shell, Python, and Perl scripts. These have extensions .sh, .py and .pl, respectively.</p>
53
<p>You can select to <gui>Run executable text files when they are opened</gui>, <gui>View executable text files when they are opened</gui> or <gui>Ask each time</gui>. If the last option is selected, a window will appear asking if you wish to run or view the selected text file.</p>

<link type="seealso" xref="files-delete"/>
60
<title type="link">File manager trash preferences</title>
66
<title><gui>Ask before emptying the Trash or deleting files</gui></title>
67
<p>This option is selected by default. When emptying the trash, a message will be displayed confirming that you would like to empty the trash or delete files.</p>
70
<title><gui>Include a delete command that bypasses Trash</gui></title>
71
<p>Selecting this option will add a <gui>Delete</gui> menu item to the <gui>Edit</gui> menu as well as the menu that pops up when you right-click on an item in the <app>Files</app> application.</p>
72
<note style="warning">
73
<p>Deleting an item using the <gui>Delete</gui> menu option bypasses the Trash altogether. The item is removed from the system completely. There is no way to recover the deleted item.</p>
