I also once had a day devoted to digging out file managers with the
intention to find _the_ one. I asked a friend about his favourite file
browser
and he said it was " ls -l" . Eventually I agreed. Once you're used to
the terminal it feels unnatural to click-point-click, at least for
me.... and I found myslef
losing sense of what's where in the directories. But probably the
opposite is also true.
Mark, have you seen xnc: http://xnc.dubna.su/ ?
It's a guified mc with drag&drop.
also, xplore, http://www.musikwissenschaft.uni-mainz.de/~ag/xplore/
isn't bad at all although it looks a bit ugly until you play around with
it for a while
but definitely this fsv is a monster!!! I''ll probably never use it but
it's
awesome!!! I just showed it to a girl in the lab, a die-hard windows user,
and she striaght away wanted a version for her OS :)):))
