File browsers

I'm running fedora 6 with gnome and fluxbox. I don't like nautilus file browser, what does anyone else use and have you any comments about them?

If you are one of those that feel allergic about anything related and want a pure gtk-only environment, then I guess you can try pcmanfm or thunar. There's also rox, if you can stand it.

If you don't mind about that things, then you can also try konqueror and dolphin.

If you like text interfaces, mc+bash is the killer combination that I use. There're also graphical two-pane file managers, like krusader.

Thanks guys, I think mc is probably the sort of thing I'm looking for. Thanks!

I like rox-filer.

And of course the "Midnight Commander" ( 'mc' )
which will also do a few things, the other ones
can't do.
