v0.5.2
- New option for config: Now you can set the max length of the item name to be displayed (if the terminal size is not enough, it will be automatically adjusted). See config.toml for details.
A tui file manager with vim-like key mapping, written in Rust.
Works on terminals with 21 columns or more.
While heavliy inspired by the great vifm and trying to implement its pleasant experience in Rust, at the same time this project focuses on the following points:
| OS | Status | | -- | ------ | |Linux | works well | |NetBSD | works well | |MacOS | works, though some errors may occur. if so, let me know!| |Windows| almost unavailable due to file-name encoding error|
Make sure that gcc is installed.

| command | |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |

| Key | Explanation |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| j / Key Up | Go up. If the list exceeds max-row, list "scrolls" before the top of the list. |
| k / Key Down | Go down. If the list exceeds max-row, list "scrolls" before the bottom of the list. |
| h / Key Left | Go to parent directory if exists. |
| l / Key Right / Enter | Open file or change directory. Commands for execution can be managed in config file. |
| gg | Go to the top. |
| G | Go to the bottom. |
| dd | Delete and yank item (item will go to the trash directory). |
| yy | Yank item. If you yanked other item before, its information is replaced by this one. |
| p | Put yanked item(s) in the current directory. If item with same name exists, copied item will be renamed with the suffix "_copied". |
| V | Switch to select mode, where you can move cursor to select items. |
| d (select mode) | Delete and yank selected items, and return to normal mode. |
| y (select mode) | Yank selected items, and return to normal mode. |
| backspace | Toggle whether to show hidden items or not. This change remains after exit (stored in .session file in config directory). |
| t | Toggle sort order (by name <-> by modified time). This change remains after exit (same as above). |
| : | Switch to shell mode (experimantal). Type command and press Enter to execute it. You can use any command in the displayed directory, but it may fail to execute the command (e.g. cd doesn't work for now), and also the display of items may collapse during execution. |
| c | Switch to rename mode (enter new name and press Enter to rename the item). |
| / | Switch to filter mode (enter keyword and press Enter to go to filtered list). |
| Esc | Return to normal mode. |
| :e | Reload the current directory. Useful when something goes wrong in filter mode (e.g. no matches) or shell mode. |
| :empty | Empty the trash directory. Please think twice before using this command. |
| :h | Show help. |
| :q / ZZ | Exit the program. |
Note that items moved to the trash directory are prefixed with Unix time (like 1633843993) to avoid name conflict. This prefix will be removed when paste.

Default config file, which is here, will be created automatically when you launch the program for the first time.
In config.toml, you can set:
If you write
``` default = "nvim"
[exec] feh = ["jpg", "jpeg", "png", "gif", "svg"] zathura = ["pdf"] ```
then, .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .gif and .svg files are opened by feh <file-name>, .pdf files by zathura <file-name> and others by nvim <file-name> .
