LF
Google Groups | Wiki | #lf (on Libera.Chat) | #lf:matrix.org (with IRC bridge)
This is a work in progress. Use at your own risk.
lf (as in "list files") is a terminal file manager written in Go with a heavy inspiration from ranger file manager.
See faq for more information and tutorial for a gentle introduction with screencasts.
Features
- Cross-platform (Linux, MacOS, BSDs, Windows)
- Single binary without any runtime dependencies
- Fast startup and low memory footprint due to native code and static binaries
- Asynchronous IO operations to avoid UI locking
- Server/client architecture and remote commands to manage multiple instances
- Extendable and configurable with shell commands
- Customizable keybindings (vi and readline defaults)
- A reasonable set of other features (see the documentation)
Non-Features
- Tabs or windows (better handled by window manager or terminal multiplexer)
- Builtin pager/editor (better handled by your pager/editor of choice)
