File Manager for Enlightenment


Hey all,
I have just finished my first gentoo install and have installed Enlightenment,

Does anyone use a good light filemanager with alot of right click menu feautres?

in addition i was wondering if thier was a terminal app other then xterm that will alow cut and paste.

sorry, i've never used enlightenment. the website says, "DR16 uniquely allows background selection to be done from the main menu system using thumbnailed views of the background providing a quick and easy way to change wallpaper." so maybe check the menus?

Now, don't judge a book by it's cover, but I _highly_ recommend Worker for a file manager:

Sure, it's ugly as sin, but it's extremely fast (especially an optimized compile), and very easy / informative to use.

Yup that is ugly.

Im happy with ROX

And also I found where to change my backgrounds,
It's in the $HOME/.enlightenment/backgrounds.

The weird thing is I have to restart for enlightenement to see the changes.
