I find it rather hard to travel through my system using nautilus and much prefer using the etc commands in Terminal to get around my system, but I find that sometimes I do need to look at a list of files and folders in nautilus as just isn't doing it for me and maybe there is such a large number of files that it would be much simpler if I could just have them all listed in a GUI instead of having to get ls to redirect the output into a file that I would then have to read.
