Here you can find several Nautilus scripts I created. These are little programs which add new options to the contextual menu of Nautilus, that is, the menu which is displayed when you right click on an element.

To install one of them, if you use Debian, Ubuntu, or some other distribution which uses deb packages, you can download the deb file and simply double-click on it to launch the installer, or you can add my repository to your sources.list file, so that your distribution can inform you of new releases.

If you choose the second method, open the file /etc/apt/sources.list with your favorite editor as root and add this line:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/zootropo/ubuntu hardy main
Update the list of packages writing sudo aptitude update on the terminal, and install the application by writing sudo aptitude install name of the program.

If you use other distribution, download the tar.gz, uncompress it, and execute the command make install with root privileges.

Once installed, you have to restart your PC (or Nautilus) for the menu of the new script to be shown.

nautilus-tag-music

This program adds a new entry to the contextual menu which allows us to fill the ID3 tags of mp3 files with its appropriate genre, artist, year, album, number of song and title using its path. For this program to work your music has to be stored using a path like /Genre/Artist/Year - Album/Number - Title.mp3

Also if you have an image for the artist at the "Artist" folder and / or one for the album at the "Year - Album" folder, these will be added too to their corresponding ID3 tags.

nautilus-rename-exif-date

This program adds a new entry to the contextual menu which allows us to rename the selected JPEG and TIFF photographies (and the ones contained inside the selected folders) to the date and hour in which the photos were taken, using the corresponding EXIF tag.

Of course, the new menu item won't show up if the image doesn't have EXIF tags.
