Those who don’t know Norton Commander are condemned to reinvent it.
Or DOS Shell.
This is much prettier, though.
Why is it making network connections when I run it?
Good to know. How do you test if a program makes network connections? Do you just open Wireshark and look at outgoing traffic?
the hero we need
Did you check what the connections are about ? Maybe it is only checking for new updates ?
It wanted to download a zip file. Apparently it was a theme. But, I’m not letting a local file manager talk to the internet randomly. If I want to update it, I’ll update it myself. Or, at least provide an option to enable it on first run.
Uninstalled.
Not written in rust, yuck! 😆

Go is pretty cool, better than R
Why would you even compare Go with R though?
Because R would be weird for this use case hence Go being better for it
But why bring it up at all? Nobody said anything about R so why make that comparison?
Why dismiss all languages that aren’t rust?
R and rust are two completely different languages…
You didn’t seem to understand my question
Dismissing all but Rust is a joke
Saying Go is better than R at things R isn’t used for is a joke because it’s obvious and someone doing this in R would just draw the question of why even though they could
How else is it going to fit inside of 25kb? Can they even make rust executables under 1GB?
Not sure where you got the 25kb number from.
This tool is written in go and is a 7.8 MB compiled binary.
Oh wow, a text based file manager is that big ? That’s half of my openwrt router’s memory
Did you mean 1MB? With correct settings, you get under 1MB Rust binaries and with even more compression using upx it gets to 300KB, probably less for much simpler applications. Rust applications aren’t that big of a deal as people make it to be; within reasons off course.
Ah, Midnight Commander, how have I missed you.
Yes. I do like that.
Feels like
diredandmc, but way more stylized and cool.“pretty fancy” or "pretty, fancy, and … "?
Linux user. Installs fancy gui. Uses terminal for file management.
/Use your own meme format.
Thanks for the share!
I’ve always liked tui file managers, broot is a pretty cool one as well.
This looks super cool, but I’ve been using midnight commander for so so long.
It has a font requirement? That’s just weird…
awesome
Looks very cool!
I like nnn
Commenting so I can grab this later
