Worker vs Double Commander

Rename files, move to other directories and extracting archives are of course a given...BUT THERE'S MORE! Convert media formats, make symlinks, CHMOD, change graphic formats, integrated GPG, filename UPPER/lowercase adjustments and more with just one button click!

Worker supports access to remote machines through various ways (ssh, ftp, rsh, http and webdav).

The system requirements for Worker are pretty low, making it a great option for lower-end machines. The reason why they are pretty low is because Worker is basically made of just X11 libraries.

Worker has a built-in configuration GUI.

You can use same tool in all desktop OS environments.

If the developer loses interest there is at least the possibility that someone else will pick up the torch.

Lots of options allow you to configure DC the way it suits you best: Tools, Fonts, Colors, Hotkeys, Mouse, Fileviews, Plugins, Layout, Toolbars, Tabs, Icons etc.

Save shortcuts to folders. Organize them in a treeview with submenus. Define a name and sorting for each entry.

so you can use documentation from Total Commander for writing plugins. WCX (packer), WDX (content), WFX (file system), WLX (lister).

For instance, the 'Settings | Layout' pane is quasi-identical to TCs.

Although it is lightweight and simple to use, it can do very sophisticated tasks, like copying files from directories which have a certain extension or file size or have a certain text pattern in them. Also, it's very customizable and stable.

It's all a matter of perspective. I'm not for an argument about IDE's, frameworks etc, but to me that's a big plus. I think it should be a tie, it's either a pro or a con or should that be neither a pro nor a con. It just depends on context.
