A robust UNIX console file manager with an easy-to-use interface.
For those interested in trying lfm, it's important to note that the program is written in Python and requires the curses module to function properly. Additionally, Python v2.0 or a higher version is necessary, as lfm will not work with v1.5.
If you've got ncurses v5.x or higher installed, you should be able to enjoy lfm without any problems on all modern UNIX flavors, including Linux, BSD, and Solaris.
Installing lfm is an easy process that involves downloading the sources, uncompressing the file, and building and installing the program via the command line.
To enable lfm to switch to the panel's current directory after quitting with certain keys, you'll need to add a specific code to your .bashrc or /etc/bashrc file. If you don't use either of these shells, the code will need to be adapted accordingly.
