Actually every applications run under linux has its command line and also options to manipulate, check out nautilus with
nautilus --helpWhy I need to specified options to load up nautilus? It seems to be accesible on just click on it?
The reason is I am a fluxbox user, by running nautilus, it loaded gnome desktop as well, I don’t want that, therefore I do this:
nautilus --no-desktop --browser–no-desktop, don’t load desktop, and –browser to make nautilus act like file browser, else when open a folder, it spawn another new windows.
The reason I like nautilus, because it allow me to access samba easily by doing this
smb://username@192.168.1.5You can access fonts, gnome themes like
fonts:///
themes:///It supports burn iso to cd or dvd, by just right click and select to burn. A lots more yet to be discover.

[...] I feel smbclient not efficient compare to sftp, sftp have great command such as lpwd, lls and lcd which is really efficient, where smbclient only have lcd. But for sftp, you need to have ssh access, it doesn’t work for accessing windows machine. Alternatively, you can access smb service through nautilus too. [...]

@ian boi: You may want to look into wmctrl.
