ROX for me as well

As with Kwrite as an editor, I'm still stuck on Konqueror, but I admit I haven't even tried many of the ones on the poll, so there's very likely a good replacement for trusty Konq on the desktop -- I just need to get around to finding it.

Outside X, I use mc.

Being a CLI user mostly, I prefer Midnight Commander.

Thunar is the best in the list but I've been using PCManFM on the LXDE based workstations and it's also come a long way in short period of time so going to give it the vote this year.

Otherwise, man, oh man, I wish Gnome would pull Thunar in and ditch the lameness that is Nautilus. In the meantime lets hope that the "Thunar Threat" at least gives the Nautilus dev heads a much needed kick in the pants.

PCmanfm with multiple tabs yet does not provide history save.
Nautilus got multitab after 2.24 version.
I have not come across file manager that provides multiple tab with all control using keyboard & opening file types with relevant application ?

I normally use the terminal, but when i want simplify some tasks I use nautilus.

Thunar is improving in leaps and bounds. My vote goes there. MC in the terminal.

code933k · 01-12-2010, 01:24 PM

Dolphin is neat so my vote is there (My preferred one is MC though)

JMJ_coder · 01-12-2010, 04:18 PM

Usually do most of my file management from the CLI (ls, cp, mv, rm, etc.), but I do like Midnight Commander. And I do sometimes use Nautilus because drag-and-drop is nice at times.

Since Dolphin is a little bug yet,
my vote goes to the good 'n old konqueror.

sycamorex · 01-13-2010, 07:52 AM

I wish I could vote for thunar. Unfortunately my vote goes to konqueror again.
Dolphin crashes too much. MC hangs with ftp sessions. Thunar lacks functionality that konqueror has.
There's still krusader, but I haven't got used to it (yet!).

PCMANFM

it just works

raju.mopidevi · 01-13-2010, 08:20 AM

I like Dolphin, It looks nice, but it is crashing frequently. So again my vote to "konqueror".
