Does someone is able to convert the caja meld plugin to become compatible with Ubuntu Mate 20.04? That is a very important plugin for me, beside the open as admin .....

An old one is here: http://www.giuspen.com/software/cajapyext/meld-compare.py

Thanks a million.

I would recommend to contact Giuspen directly about you need.

Below are two alternatives:

  • Other possibility is to use shell alternative, I can share it with you:

    sudo apt-get install meld

mkdir -p ~/.config/caja/scripts
cd ~/.config/caja/scripts
wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/N0rbert/b0b11340e588b33fab542b0c72837e41/raw/6ec7f6ccea71ac3d473038c4ae66041494a24688/meld
chmod +x meld

    it will be available in Caja when you have selected 2-3 files or 2-3 folders: File → Scripts → meld . See screenshots:

    1. single pane operation
    2. dual pane operation (F3, View → Extra Pane)

  • As temporary substitution you can try to configure custom action using Caja Actions Configuration Tool from caja-actions package.
