GNU Midnight Commander (mc) is a classic, dual-pane file manager for the terminal. It simplifies file management on Linux and Unix, making it fast and easy to use tool for new and power users as well. Try it out, after all it is free and opensource tool. You can easily install it yourself using your favourite package manager https://midnight-commander.org/

@nixCraft Wasn't a GUI version of mc used for GNOME's default file manager until Nautilus became that default file manager in GNOME 1.4?

@cameron_bosch @nixCraft The thing I've always liked about Gnome: the Gnome Commander 🥳

@thesaigoneer @nixCraft If you're on KDE, why not try Krusader? It's very similar, except it uses Qt like KDE and all of their apps.

@cameron_bosch @nixCraft You won't be surprised it's always on my KDE installs. On GTK, if available, Double Commander. And always mc of course. Tainted forever by Norton Commander 🤓
