| gnome-vfs has the dreaded <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gnome-vfs-2.0/gnome-vfs-2.0-gnome-vfs-xfer.html#gnome-vfs-xfer-uri-list"><code class="function">gnome_vfs_xfer_uri_list()</code></a> function which |
| has tons of options and offers the equivalent of cp, mv, ln, mkdir |
| and rm at the same time. |

| GIO offers a much simpler I/O scheduler functionality instead, that |
| lets you schedule a function to be called in a separate thread, or |
| if threads are not available, as an idle in the mainloop. |
| See <a class="link" href="gio-GIOScheduler.html#g-io-scheduler-push-job" title="g_io_scheduler_push_job ()"><code class="function">g_io_scheduler_push_job()</code></a>. |
