Description
X File Explorer (Xfe) serves as a file manager reminiscent of MS-Explorer or commander-style interfaces for the X window system. Its foundation is rooted in the well-known, yet no longer supported, X Win Commander, which was initially created by Maxim Baranov. The development of Xfe began in 2002 thanks to Roland Baudin, a passionate Linux user from France. You might wonder why another file manager is necessary when there are already so many great options available. While it's true that more intricate and animated file managers like Konqueror, Nautilus, or Rox offer a plethora of features, one can't ignore their substantial size and resource demands. For those who prefer working in the console, use lightweight desktops, or have older machines, these resource-intensive file managers can be impractical. Many existing file managers are also tied to specific desktop environments such as KDE, Gnome, or Xfce, which means they often bring along unnecessary bloat. In contrast, Xfe is designed to be compact and exceptionally speedy, requiring only the FOX library to operate effectively. Additionally, it can be swiftly initiated from the command line, taking mere seconds to launch, making it an ideal choice for users seeking efficiency without the frills. This emphasis on simplicity and performance makes Xfe a valuable alternative in the file manager landscape.
