Nautilus 3.7.4 comes with support for the –select command-line options, which allows users to force selection of the passed-in URI, adds source hints to notifications, and a modernized build infrastructure. This version uses public GTK-ally support instead of the hacks implemented by the development team in previous releases. Moreover, a crash was fixed in the GNOME Shell search provider.
