PCMan File Manager

PCMan File Manager

PCMan File Manager is a file manager with a tabbed interface.

The goal of this application is to be slim and useful, but not to have any feature bloat.  It is meant to be a replacement for Nautilus, Konqueror and Thunar.

It can be modified to take the appearance of Microsoft Windows, helping beginners migrate from Windows to Linux.
