been using beesoft commander and qtfm due to playing with razor-qt
but no-one wants them - yet
beesoft is closer to my standby xfe which i use mostly
but also no-one wants

of the big guys i think spacefm is/going to be a goody
which i pick before pcmanfm or thunar

no worries bacon

thats what the "other" check box is for

and your right about rox
its just a pain to get all set up
but i guess if you use it you know how to do what you like
or keep configs somewhere

pcmanfm. It's light, has tabs, and has fewer dependencies than Thunar.

I've been hearing that spacefm is "going to be great" for a long time now. I tried it, and I really don't get the hype.

I'm probably not the best person to ask -- I almost always use coreutils.

It's close between pcmanfm and thunar but I'll go with pcmanfm. Dolphin is great when I use KDE though.

pcmanfm here, too. Who needs more ? And who gets the job done with less ?
Avatars are bloat

I picked caja, although I find it pushes the cpus to max doing nothing, so don't listen to me

Spacefm, how can you not like double panes? Pcmanfm is another favorite of mine besides midnight commander or ranger
