My small split-view file manager
Hello.
I've created a small file manager with split-view. While some functionality is still missing, the manager is usable and I'm using it as my primery tool for file browsing.
You can get the browser from here http://github.com/napsy/gsfm
space - select/unselect
F5 - copy selection
F4 - rename selection
F3 - new directory
delete - delete selection
tab - change view
There is support for custom view with a config file. You put the config file inside your ~/.config directory. A sample config is provided with the source.

Re: My small split-view file manager
It's good that it's C and BSD-licensed, but I don't really see a point in GTK. I mean, there are a lot of GTK file browsers out there already, but there is no (to my mind) proper ncurses file browser written in pure C. It's just MC and vifm, all the others aren't C. So if it would be ncurses I would definetly be interested. That's just my opinion. Anyways, thanks!

Re: My small split-view file manager
Tbh i love the look of it, just abit sad you can't put your own keybinding in so i could easily make it handle like for instance vifm. Then i would have a filemanager i could have loved.

Nice and minimalistic. Though bash is still the only FM for me. 
I suggest AURing this.

Pretty nice, but what does it have over vifm?

Re: My small split-view file manager
Well it's gtk-based, don't know if that's a plus or a minus. I didn't try vifm so I can't compare. It supports MIME types and can be customized with a config file.
I'll try to put it in AUR this evening.
