Description-en: Multi-panel tabbed file manager - GTK2 version
SpaceFM is a multi-panel tabbed file and desktop manager for Linux with
built-in VFS, udev or HAL-based device manager, customizable menu system
and bash integration.
.
A descendant of PCManFM, SpaceFM's aims are to be bugfixed, efficient
(mainly C), hugely customisable (change and add to the GUI as you go
with Design Mode), powerful without scaring off newer users (due to
customisation), independent of particular distributions and desktop
environments, and device management featureful enough to replace the
various udisks-based *kits when used alongside udevil.
.
Other highlights include optional desktop management, smart queuing
of file operations, user plugins and the ability to carry out specific
commands as root.
.
Please install spacefm-gtk3 instead if you want to stick with GTK+3.
