3. Where does Thunar store the metadata associated with files?
==============================================================
- Thunar associates various settings with files/folders, which we call metadata.
- This metadata for all files is stored in tdb database file, which is called
- the metafile. The database file is stored in
-
- $XDG_CACHE_HOME/Thunar/metafile.tdb
-
- and can be examined using the tdbtool, which is part of the Thunar
- distribution (located in the tdb/ subdirectory).
+ Thunar uses the metadata daemon provided by GVFS.
