702 It provides more visual feedback : which actions have been modified, which

704 reloads the list of actions if it has been externally modified, depending
705 on the modification status of the currently edited actions.

708 Actions can be exported as a GConf dump entry (new format).
712 This utility has been renamed from nautilus-actions-new-config.

715 actions with the new export format, or to directly write the action into
716 the GConf repository.

734 actions which will be displayed by Nautilus in item context menu,
735 makes a full use of this new object hierarchy.
737 The nautilus-actions-config UI always uses the old one.

758 In the meantime (10/2008), some distributions have packaged and
759 released the current state of the svn trunk (rev.510) ; they have
760 generally called it 1.9 (sometimes 1.9b) ; this was _not_ an
761 official release (though we can think it has been correctly
766 The "profile" feature has been developed by Frederic Ruaudel
767 (previous maintainer and original author of Nautilus-actions).
768 It has been included in the intermediate version 1.9x without
769 having thoroughly tested ; I have choosen to left it in this
770 version to not create backward compatibility problems for the
771 users of these distributions, but be warned : use with caution.
