ROX-Filer
ROX-Filer is a simple
and easy to use graphical file manager for X11 based on the GTK2
library. It uses a uniform drag-and-drop approach for every operation.
It is also the core component of the ROX
Desktop Environment.
The software aims to marry together good features from RISC OS
to Linux.
Features include:
- Fully configurable
- Small footprint
- Thumbnails

- Fast background scanning of directories
- Uncluttered display (popup menus are used throughout),
- Background file operations (copy, move, link, delete,
permissions, find)
- Powerful expression-based search feature with on-line quick
reference (e.g. 'mtime after 2 days ago and size > 10Mb' finds
files based
on
their modification time and size)
- Mounts and unmounts filesystems (floppies, DVDs, etc)
- Supports XDND, the common drag-and-drop protocol
- Supports XDS extension which allows drag-and-drop savings
- Shared MIME Info Database
- Pop-up minibuffer allows navigating the filesystem using
shell-style tab completion
- Self contained relocatable applications
