jafff is just another fast file manager. It’s inspired by the now abandoned fff file manager.
jafff tries to use as many of fff’s keybindings etc as possible, as is the same with some ls flags.
For example, starting it with jafff -la shows the some information as running ls -lah. The -h flag is not necessary for jafff since size is always displayed human-readable.
