A simple and Qt file manager for *NIX
Project description
tfm
Simple file manager implemented in Qt for Python. This project aims to create a simple, desktop agnostic, unix file-manager. The initial version is going to be implemented in Python, though this might change in a later version, if there are performance problemss. The Project is in a proof of concept stage right now and it is not advised to use it at the moment.
Features:
- basic directory traversal
- window layout with toolbar, statusbar, main table view, fs tree and bookmarks
- open files using xdg-open
- cut, copy, paste, delete (with confirmation), renaming
- named bookmarks to folders
- show/hide dotfiles
How to install
Don't right now. Making packages is the next item on my list though.
Screenshots
Are going to be here soon.

Non-Features
These features are going to be intentionally omitted:
- dependencies on specific desktop environments
- windows management like tabs, split views or similar
- plugins or script support
- a lot of configuration options
These features are not going to be implemented by me, but I wouldn't reject a good pull request for them:
- Windows support
