When cd'ing in nautilus-terminal, change the directory in nautilus itself

[Elad Alfassa]

Corrently, when you change a directory in nautilus, the directory in the nautilus-terminal also changes.
i want it to work also in the opposite way: when i change a directory (eg. using the cd command) in nautilus-terminal - the directory in nautilus will change accordingly.

It is not possible for the moment. See https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nautilus-terminal/+spec/cd-nautilus for more informations

Would it be possible to add an option to disable following nautilus directory changes? Just a flag in the config file would be great.

For me, the behavior of the terminal in geany is fantastic. It won't follow any directory changes, but the terminal context menu contains an entry "Set Path from Document." With a very short click action, I can be in the current directory and run whatever I need. This keeps extraneous (intermediate) directory change commands from muddying up the terminal.

In addition, on rare cases, I will start typing a command in the terminal, get distracted, then change directories in nautilus without thinking. This is dangerous, because it appends 'cd XX' to whatever I was typing. This leads to error messages, and feels, well, dangerous. I realize that is probably not a problem for 90 something percent of the users, which is why it would be nice to just have an option to disable directory tracking. On by default for most people, and off for me only :D.

Thanks! Great job!

@Edwin Lee:

It is possible to add those options, but I haven't many time for implementing them. Additionally, I think it can be better to open a new bug for your request, because it was not related to this one ;)
