+15 Ways to Tweak Nemo File Manager in Linux to Get More Out of it
+======
+Nemo is the default file manager of the Cinnamon Desktop. You get it in Linux Mint and other distributions with the Cinnamon desktop.
+
+It’s a powerful file manager with plenty of features you might not know. Some tweaks are hidden inside the Nemo settings while some require installing additional extension packages.
+
+I have included commands for installing extensions for Ubuntu and Debian-based distributions.
+
+**Note: Please don’t go and install all the extensions. Only use the ones you would use.**
+
+### 1. Enable quick file preview
+
+Nemo Preview is a cool feature that comes in handy if you want to peek into some files on the go. You can access the preview feature for images, audio, video, PDF, etc.
+
+It also allows scrolling the documents in preview mode and adds a floating control with a seek par in audio/video preview.
+
+![File Preview in Nemo File Manager With Nemo Preview][1]
+
+You can get the preview feature by installing the following extension:
+
+```
+sudo apt install nemo-preview
+```
+
+Once installed, you may need to restart the Nemo file manager.
+
+To activate the preview, **select the file and press the Space key**. Pressing the space key again will close the preview.
+
+### 2. Click twice to rename
+
+This is one of the iconic features of Nemo file manager, which is already offered in Dolphin File Manager of KDE, but absent in Nautilus of Gnome.
+
+To enable this setting, you need to go to Edit > Preferences > Behaviour and toggle the option as shown below:
+
+![Click on File Name Twice to Rename It][2]
+
+Once done, you can now click twice on a file/folder and an inline rename option appears to rename the respective selection.
+
+### 3. Bulk rename files
+
+Nemo also offers a bulk rename feature that many Linux users are not aware of.
+
+What you have to do is, select the files and select **rename** from the right click. You’ll get different kinds of options to tweak the names of the selected group of files.
+
+![Nemo File Manager Bulk Rename][3]
+
+You can find and replace, remove certain parts of the name among many other things.
+
+### 4. Double click anywhere to go to the parent folder
+
+This is rather an accessibility setting. Instead of pressing the back button or clicking on the places tree, you can simply double-click anywhere in the empty space in the window to go to the parent folder.
+
+To enable this feature, go to Edit > Preferences > Behaviour and toggle on the option as shown in the screenshot below.
+
+![Double Click on Blank Area to go to Parent Folder][4]
+
+### 5. Compress files and folders
+
+This is not a secret really. Almost all file managers have this option as far as I know.
+
+Right click on a file or folder and you get the Compress option to create an archive file.
+
+![Compress Option in Right Click Context Menu][5]
+
+You can choose between formats like .7z, .tar, .zip to .apk, .epub. etc. Some compression methods like epub requires their own defined formats to succeed.
+
+![Compress Options][6]
+
+Some compression formats support password protection, encryption and splitting, as shown in the above screenshot.
+
+If you did not find this option, you could install the package nemo-fileroller:
+
+```
+sudo apt install nemo-fileroller
+```
+
+### 6. Configure the right-click context menu
+
+By default, there are many options in the right-click context menu. If you are one of those users who want to control what appears on your right-click menu, this is the feature for you.
+
+You can access this setting from Edit > Preferences > Context Menus:
+
+![Configure Right Click Context Menu][7]
+
+Here you can toggle on or off various options you want to appear when you right-click anywhere. You can now populate your right-click menu with features you use frequently.
+
+### 7. Rotate and resize images with right click 
+
+To enable this feature, you need to install nemo-image-converter package.
+
+```
+sudo apt install nemo-image-converter
+```
+
+Restart Nemo and you can access the additional options right within the right-click context menu.
+
+![Rotate or Resize Images in Nemo File Manager][8]
+
+### 8. Change folder colours and add emblems
+
+The feature to change folder colour was preinstalled on my Linux Mint 21. To change individual folder colour, right-click on the file and change colour from the context menu.
+
+![Change Individual Folder Color][9]
+
+If you don’t see it, you can install the extension:
+
+```
+sudo apt install folder-color-switcher
+```
+
+Another cool feature is to add emblems to files and folders. To give an emblem to a file or folder, right-click and go to the properties dialog box.
+
+From this, select the emblems tab and add whatever emblem you like.
+
+![Select Emblems for Files or Folders][10]
+
+If it’s not installed by default, you can install it by:
+
+```
+sudo apt install nemo-emblems
+```
+
+### 9. Verify checksum of files
+
+There are dedicated tools to [verify checksum of files in Linux][11]. You can also check hashes in the Nemo file manager with nemo-gtkhash extension.
+
+```
+sudo apt install nemo-gtkhash
+```
+
+Now quit nemo and re-open. Select the file to check hash and go to the **Digests** tab in properties.
+
+![Check Hash Checksum of File with Nemo GTKHash][12]
+
+It will take some time to check the hash and a tick mark, as shown in the above screenshot, indicates a successful result.
+
+### 10. Use advanced permissions in properties dialog box
+
+Now, you can view amore detailed an an intuitive permission dialog box for folders and file. To get this, you need to go to Edit > Preferences > Display and toggle the button on as shown below:
+
+![Show Advanced Permission in Property Dialog Box][13]
+
+Now, instead of the old, drop-down menu interface, you get a neat-looking permission manager with a toggle button interface and more options to tweak.
+
+![Edit Advanced Permissions in Property Dialog Box][14]
+
+### 11. Embed a terminal
+
+Fancy a terminal? You can get it right inside the Nemo file manager.
+
+Each time you change directories, a cd command is initiated and the location in the embedded terminal is also changed.
+
+To get this function, you need to install nemo-terminal package.
+
+```
+sudo apt install nemo-terminal
+```
+
+Now restart Nemo and you get an embed terminal on the top side.
+
+![Nemo Embedded Terminal][15]
+
+### 12. Get the list of recently visited directories
+
+There is the “Recent” option in the places section, where you can see the recently accessed files. But what about the recently visited folders?
+
+In Nemo, on the top left, **right-click on the back arrow** to get the list of previously visited folders.
+
+![Right Click on Top Left Back Arrow to Access Recent Folders][16]
+
+### 13. Show the number of items in folders
+
+You can show how many files and folders are inside a folder in Nemo File Manager.
+
+![Show Number of Items Inside Folder Using Nemo File Manager][17]
+
+It is a built-in feature. Go to Edit > Preferences > Display and select Size as shown in the screenshot below:
+
+![Show Folder Item Count and File Sizes in Nemo Preferences][18]
+
+### 14. Nemo media columns
+
+This is a small addition, useful only if you use the ‘List View’ in Nemo. It provides additional column options in the list view.
+
+![default list columns available in nemo][19]
+
+![more media columns added to nemo list view][20]
+
+To get this feature, you need to install nemo-media-columns:
+
+```
+sudo apt install nemo-media-columns
+```
+
+![More Columns View in Nemo List View][21]
+
+### 15. Nemo Scripts and Actions (for expert users)
+
+Here are a few advanced features that enhances the overall function of nemo file manager by adding user defined functions.
+
+#### Nemo Scripts
+
+With this feature, users can create their own shell scripts for certain functionality they wish and embed them into the right-click context menu.
+
+You need to save your shell scripts in ~/.local/share/nemo/scripts directory. With the help of tools like [zenity][22], you can even give a GTK interface for your script.
+
+Let me show an example.
+
+Below is a script adding a color palette to select colour and copy the colour to [copyq clipboard manager][23]. Save the file with name Color in the above-mentioned directory and give it executable permission. Copyq and Zenity should be installed.
+
+```
+#!/bin/bash
+name=$(zenity --color-selection --show-palette --title Color\ Select)
+copyq add $name
+```
+
+![Nemo Scripts in Right Click Context][24]
+
+![Color Select with Zenity][25]
+
+The selected color code will now be accessible from the clipboard.
+
+#### Nemo Actions
+
+This is similar to Nemo Scripts. Here, you can define a script in the form of a key-value pair for additional functions over selected files.
+
+The files should have extension `.nemo_action` and they should be located in `~/.local/share/nemo/actions`
+
+Here is a snippet of code provided in the Linux Mint Community. It creates an option to reduce the image size by 50%.
+
+Save this script as reduce_50.nemo_action in the above-mentioned directory and you will find the option in right-click context menu
+
+```
+[Nemo Action]
+Active=true
+Name=Reduce Image 50%
+Comment=Reduce the size of the image by 50%
+Exec=ffmpeg -i %F -vf scale=iw/2:-1 copy-50%f
+Icon-Name=image
+Selection=any;
+Extensions=jpg;jpeg;png;bmp;gif;tiff;raw;
+Terminal=true
+```
+
+![Reduce Image by 50 Percent Context Menu Entry][26]
+
+You can see the resultant file with the slightly modified name.
+
+![Image Reduced with Nemo Actions Result][27]
+
+This way, you effectively enhance Nemo file manager functionality as per your requirement.
+
+### More tweaks and extensions
+
+Apart from numerous extensions, there are other built-in features in Nemo like integrations with cloud services, other handy right-click menu items etc.
+
+It is not necessary for you to install and use all of the features mentioned above. You can handpick those that suit your needs.
+
+You can also **toggle on/off any of the installed extensions** by going to Edit > Plugins (or Alt + P).
+
+![Access Plugins from Menu][28]
+
+Here, you can manage your installed plugins, actions, scripts etc. This enables you to activate or deactivate certain features without the hassle of installing/uninstalling packages. Every feature can be toggled on or off as needed. Just restart Nemo to get the effect.
+
+![Plugins View and Manage in Nemo][29]
+
+When we last published the [Nautilus tweak article][30], a few readers requested a similar one for Nemo. And hence this article came into existence.
+
+I hope you find the tweaks interesting. If you have suggestions or questions, please leave a comment.
