Description

Far Manager is a utility designed for file and archive management within Windows operating systems. Operating in text mode, it offers a straightforward and user-friendly interface for executing essential tasks. The program features a configurable interface that supports multiple languages, catering to a diverse user base. Navigation through the file system is enhanced by color coding and grouping options, making it more intuitive. The capabilities of Far Manager can be significantly expanded through the use of external DLL modules known as plugins, which are facilitated by a dedicated Plugins API. For instance, functionalities such as archive handling, an FTP client, a temporary panel, and a network browser are provided as plugins that come bundled with the standard version of Far. Users can easily customize their experience by adding or removing these plugins based on their specific needs.

Description

Worker is a versatile two-pane file manager designed for the X Window System on UN*X platforms. It displays directories and files in two separate panels, offering a range of advanced file manipulation capabilities. The primary goal is to simplify file management through complete keyboard navigation, while also aiding users in locating files and directories by leveraging a history of accessed locations, real-time filtering, and keyboard shortcuts for command access. Developed by Ralf Hoffmann, Worker is released as free software under the GNU General Public License V2 or later, ensuring its accessibility to all users. Additionally, it includes VFS support for quick and efficient access to archives and remote servers, as well as the ability to execute external programs by typing in names and arguments, complete with an unlimited command history. Users can also customize the interface with a robust system for binding external applications to buttons, hotkeys, or specific file types, which allows for the incorporation of selected files and directories seamlessly. Furthermore, Worker features a text viewer that can operate independently or within an embedded pane for added convenience. This combination of features makes Worker a powerful tool for anyone looking to enhance their file management experience.
