Tilix: Missed "Open Tilix Here" option in the Nautilus file manager.
@gnunn1 Hi! Thank you for your work. But could you please remind me the names of the packages I need to install in Arch Linux so that Nautilus has the context menu item "Open Tilix here"?
And may be you want add this to your wiki?
Thank you, regards.

This should be handled by the package manager. You need nautilus-python. Not sure about the exact name of the package.
Can you try to close nautilus using nautilus -q and run it again from terminal and see if everything works as expected? If not paste the logs from terminal here please.

For cases like this also see e.g. pacman -Qi tilix. pacman will tell you about the optional dependencies and whether these are already installed. In this case python-nautilus should be installed, if not install it.

You can also look at the tilix package in Arch, it tells you what the optional dependencies are including the one needed for Nautilus integration.

$ pacman -Qi tilix
So I need python-nautilus
Thank you! Now it's working for me!

There is tilix-nautilus extension now in fedora repos.
You can probably find it in other distros, e.g "apt search tilix" and find your package there.

Package python3-nautilus needs to be installed in Ubuntu. Don't forget to "killall nautilus" so that that extension appears.

It seems that running killall nautilus is unnecessary. Also, on Ubuntu, that command does not work.

The command work on Ubuntu just fine, but of course only if Nautilus is already running. And only then it is needed. As Nautilus stays running in the background even if you close all Windows it is good advice to close it completely after installing a plugin.
