nautilus: Launch Nautilus in a separated window.
$ nautilus --new-window
try on your machine
The command "nautilus --new-window" is used to open a new instance of the Nautilus file manager in a separate window.
Nautilus is the default file manager for the GNOME desktop environment on some Linux distributions. It allows users to navigate and manage files and folders on their system through a graphical user interface.
When you execute the command "nautilus --new-window" in the terminal, it launches a new window of Nautilus, which provides a separate instance of the file manager. This is useful when you want to have multiple Nautilus windows open simultaneously for organizing and moving files between different directories or performing different operations at the same time.
