N-Commodore v0.7
a
New-paradigm file-manager in single AppImage
binary
Basically, the novelty of the tool comes from 3 factors:
- Panelize everything.
- Filter/grep everything.
- Save everything for later.
Panelization is known from Midnight Commander - it means to capture command output into a list that can be browsed (i,e. files viewed and opened). Filtering by keywords is known from fzf fuzzy-finder. Finally: screen saving – a fully new discovery paradigm.
A next-generation file-manager: N-Commodore.
N-Commodore is a novel merge of regular command-line (think: ls, cp, mv,
etc.) and of Midnight Commander. In short, when you first time run NC, you'll
see a 2-column view with files and a command/search prompt (toggle between
search and command prompts with Ctrl-/
). When you run a command,
like: ls functions
, the current view will be a) saved to disk,
b) replaced in the display with a new, 2-column view of files in the requested
dir: ./functions
. You can always filter the lines of text by
switching to search prompt with Ctrl-/
and entering keywords.
Or you can go back to the saved view and restore it via:
Ctrl-Shift-Left
.
Recommended is to visit help screen (press: Shift-F1
to open it).
