That's the thing about Nautilus, isn't it? There are loads of simple
ways to perform many tasks, if only you know how to. And there not in
the official documentation. Sometimes I wonder why they do this.

Couldn't we add some form of documentation of our own to make up for
what's lacking in the official Nautilus docs? I'm no nautilus expert,
but I have picked up a thing or two on the 'Net. I'm sure others have as
well. Why not a "Being Useful with Nautilus" guide. I wouldn't mind
putting it all together as long as somebody contributes tips..
