Thunar, but only because I have it installed. If I knew how to use M-x dired, or something else, I might be a member of those uninitiated in proper file management.
no terminal option for file management? In 17 years of linux i don't think i have used a file manager but 1-2 times and that was just to see what a file manager was...

If you're into Emacs, dired is pretty powerful. See info pages. Otherwise... not ;-)
P.S.; Also don't really have to invoke dired directly, just C-x C-f and provide a directory rather than file name and you'll be there.
Jeremy; Too late to add Englightenment's file manager? Circa E17 stabiliy was a bit dicey but with E18 it is pretty nice.
Edit: I'm actually really liking this as of E18 but it's integrated and doesn't seem to be available as standapp. Be kind of a drag to have to pull in all those EFL libs as well, so no wonder it didn't get added ;-P
