I have been using Unix on and off for years. There is one feature that seems to really stink. I don't like the dialog box for file manipulation. There are a few features in the M$ GUI that seem superior to those in Unix. In Unix there is no way to create a directory by right-clicking like you can in 95/NT. I have found that StarOffice does have this right-click feature, so I know that it can be done in Unix. Another feature I don't like about the standard file manipulation dialog box is the fact that if I choose an alternative directory to the one the dialog box defaults to, the file name is lost. Since the dialog box that I am referring to seems to exist on every Unix GUI that I have worked with, I assume it is something basic to the way X works. I am certainly not an expert on X-Windows architecture. Is it possible to build an alternative to the standard way Unix file manipulation boxes work?
