Wow, you guys rock. Two questions with two great answers already, dare I
try my luck for one more.
I'm looking for a file manager that is very similar to Windows Explorer.
So far I've tried quite a few and have been very disappointed with the
results. It seems that every Linux project is trying to invent a better
explorer and they all have these weird ideas of what a users wants.
Nautilus for example is over featured and a nightmare to try to
configure. Like what is the point in keeping a specific configuration
for each directory. I change the background for example but that only
applies to that directory, I have to change it for every directory,
you're kidding right?
What I am facing is a bunch of users who are used to explorer so I need
to replicate that look and functionality. I've installed Cossover office
so the users can run Word, Excel and Ie (needed because our head office
have a brain dead Intranet site that refuses to play fair with Firefox)
so I've even contempated whether I could put the explorer.exe on there.
But I'd rather find a native Linux file manager that doesn't "suck" too
much and is easy to configure so that I can easily associate file types
with applications. Forget the fancy stuff I just want, directories in
the left pane, contents in the right pane, double click to launch an
application and simple drag/drop more, copy & delete.
Any suggestions?
Thanks again
