Use Nautilus Elementary Instead of Nautilus

Registered by tim schoen

Why not use Nautilus elementary? With this tweak it looks great in the ambiance theme:

it only requires a little edit in the ambiance theme but it gives users a much better file-browsing experience!

Isn't Nautilus Elementary dead?
Elementary OS will now use Marlin - https://launchpad.net/marlin - it is like Nautilus Elementary 2, with new name - and it is
fully GTK3 ;)
I agree that Marlin(Nautilus Elementary 2) will give much better user experience :)

that's true but marlin isn't stable yet and if Ubuntu takes over Nautilus Elementary and, we can make it live again ;p

And it is gtk2...
It is really better to use Marlin...
Nautilus elementary is like GNOME2 - it has new version, it isn't supported by upstream, and all distros should use the new version - Marlin.
I am using it on my oneiric - it is great :D

I know, I'm using it 2
but it is still missing some features like file settings and it cant run executables. also, our wallpaper system is working with nautilus. When marlin has these features, I'll shut up :p.
