Shell command
These are the various file related commands which can be executed from the search results dialog. Each command requires the text $files which will be replaced with the actual filenames selected in the results dialog. For the copy command, $dest must be specified to indicate the destination name of the copy.
The default command for each are listed below:
IMPORTANT: The commands specified must be non-interactive. That is, for the command to complete, they must not prompt the user for any input. This is why the default delete and copy commands specify the -f option to rm and cp.
The check button labeled "Prompt before executing commands" enables the option for gnome-find to prompt you with a dialog to confirm whether or not you wish to execute a command on the selected files. By default, this is disabled, so that commands will execute immediately.
