(...) Click "shift" and select the first file, then the last, it will highlight the files in between. To add more non-contiguous files, release the "Shift" key and press "Crtl" to select the desired files. Yep, using the "area selection" does not work in list view mode, hope is resolved in latest GNOME release :-P Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
