Description-en: quick access to folders, documents and removable media
This plugin brings much of the functionality of GNOME’s Places menu to Xfce.
It puts a simple button on the panel. Clicking on this button opens up a menu
with 4 sections:
- System-defined directories (home folder, trash, desktop, file system)
- Removable media (using thunar-vfs)
- User-defined bookmarks (reads ~/.gtk-bookmarks)
- Recent documents submenu
