I've just published an updated nautilus-follow-symlink/caja-follow-symlink.

After more than a decade I'm updating this little project as my guinea pig for my conversion of older projects to git. It was no longer compiling with current versions of GCC so that I made a couple changes to get it working again.

You can download the updated version as usually at http://p.outlyer.net/nautilus-follow-symlink.
Can be downloaded as a source tarball or a pre-built binary for Debian Stable (amd64).

Besides the tarballs, the source is available at my new git repository and at GitHub:

I've just published an updated nautilus-follow-symlink, in case anyone is actually using it 😛

I've finally tested this version against both GNOME 2 and GNOME 3, and I'm also providing a variant to build against MATE's Caja (MATE is a fork of GNOME 2, and Caja its fork of Nautilus).

I've also written a version for Thunar, though that one I'm not publishing just yet.

This is pretty much a final version, I started looking for alternative desktops after GNOME 3 clashed with my brain, and as a consequence I've reduced my use of Nautilus considerably. I'll try to keep n-f-s buildable, but that's about it.

You can download the updated version as usually at http://p.outlyer.net/nautilus-follow-symlink.
There's both sources and binaries for Debian Stable (i386 & ambd64) and Fedora 17 (i686).
Additionally there a binary package of caja-follow-symlink for LMDE (i386).

Documentation wiki is live

I've finally open access to the documentation wiki for vcs (and also mp3plot and nautilus-follow-symlink). It's far from complete, with a lot of stuff to add, but I'm moving there all documentation progressively so there's the place to look for help.

I started using MediaWiki but later scaled back to DokuWiki.

There's a refreshed version of nautilus-follow-symlink. Nothing new (after all there's little to be added), but I'm finally letting GNOME set the icon instead of force-feeding it, so it should, hopefully, display an icon matching the user-chosen theme. And it should also be friendlier to build.
