GUI File Browser Recommendations?


What file browsers do you typically use in Linux? Besides Konqueror and Nautilus? I'm looking to try a few new ones out. Anything that allows easy network-browsing is a plus.

Midnight Copmmander in a shell is fun but not really a GUI.

XFCE uses a nice one called XFE. XFE is my favorite light-weight file browser.

Mozilla or Firefox make nice file browsers.

Not tried this one but it looks cool: http://tactileint.com/interrogator/

ROXFiler is part of a desktop enhabncement for Fluxbox, blackbox, IceWM, etc. It is very nice but kind of non-intuitive. Once you figure it out is is very nice and graphical.

There are about a dozen more here:

If you can't find what you need, come back and we can find some more. Linux is all about choice.

Good luck.
