I think it’s been 10 years now that I‘ve replaced the windows explorer with an amazingly better file manager. Although that is not free but totally worth it if I can get rid of a headache called “explorer.exe”. This double commander is exactly that good (it won’t be shocking if both soft-wares have the same architecture base) with the price of $0, so it presents all the pros and one MORE. See More
When I switched at home from Windows to Linux I could use Total Commander under Wine, but it wasn't so convenient, e.g. hitting Enter on an XLS file didn't start LibreOffice (I guess I would have to install the Windows version of LibreOffice under Wine, which IMO doesn't make sense). Now with DoubleCommander it works fine, so I probably will switch in my office (still using Windows with no possibility changing to Linux in sight) to DoubleCommander as well. See More
Best Total Commander replacement for the Mac. I tried a lot but this was the best for me. See More
Was using krusader which works great but needs a lot of dependencies from KDE , which is not installed on my current machine. See More
Midnight commander uses the full screen of the terminal in a very efficient way. It displays two panels for files horizontally. On the bottom it has the most useful commands with their corresponding key attached. All of this makes for a very intuitive interface both for beginners and experienced users. See More
Midnight commander is easy and intuitive to use. The most common commands are displayed in the bottom (move, copy, paste, delete, edit, view, make directory). Files can be selected with the arrow keys which move the cursor through them. The Enter key goes down in a directory. To move the focus between two panels the tab key is used. See More
May be difficult to get past the fact that it asked for commands dd and cc and the likes to cut and or paste. Arch-Linux normally prides itself on not over-complicating things. This is too bad. It is a great idea with the 3 Smart Columns, but why would anyone prefer to need to learn 30 commands in order to cut and paste or copy a file or folder, or to see/change permissions? See More
Ranger allows the use of various scripts for calling on individual or multiple files, for file previews, or for other operations. This allows for in-terminal full colour previews of images and videos. You can even call external scripts or chain shell commands from the primary interface. See More
I like it. It's quick, easy, and as importantly, works for my needs. That being said, it's currently version 0.3. And there doesn't seem to be much about it on its website. Said to be lots of improvements between version 0.2 and 0.3. Perhaps a little more specific (a what's new page maybe?). Perhaps some elaboration on the features mentioned at the bottom of the page.
