Cross-platform, dark themes, dual pane file manager that doesn't litter .DS_Store files like Finder and actually has a bar to copy/paste paths just like Windows Explorer but without path-obscuring names like "Pictures". Also shows free space without having to go to the system root.
Unable to run on macOS Monterey - blocked by system due to unknown developer.
nice but slow opening.. 30 sec? serious??
Doesn't have File Search Toolbar
Tried to open a file in the commander, saw an error message. Goodbye.
Doesn't remember settings from one run to the next. Every time I open the app I have to set everything up again. I don't understand why I couldn't just have a single pane file manager with the directory tree view.
Lacks such essentiall features as showing folders size on spacebar press and right mouse button selection. Works on java, so don't expect fast start or work.
As advantage, it has some nice features like control sum calculate and folder comparising. Working on java makes it quite portable and crossplatformed (you can carry .jar version on your flash drive and use it on any PC with Java VM installed).
