Krusader
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work):
similar to Midnight or Total Commander (formerly Windows Commander), with
many extras. It provides all the file-management features you could possibly
want.
Plus: extensive archive handling, mounted filesystem support, FTP, advanced
search module, viewer/editor, directory synchronisation, file content
comparisons, powerful batch renaming and much much more.
It supports the following archive formats: tar, zip, bzip2, gzip, rar, ace,
arj and rpm and can handle other KIOSlaves such as smb or fish. It is
(almost) completely customizable, very user friendly, fast and looks great on
your desktop! :-)

10 I've been a fan of this excellent twin panel file manager for many years. It's the best twin panel file manager I've used in Linux and compares very well with any similar type of file manager used in that other operating system. Dolphin is great in KDE but Krusader is still my favourite.
8 8 great
9 Stable and well thought out. It's become nearly indispensable for me, and certainly one of the apps I use most--maybe more than my browser.
Probably one of the main reasons I use KDE.
For Solstice, my brother gave me a top end WD 2TB drive. Between Krusader (for compression directly to a directory) and sometimes I use peazip as well and luckbackup for the final transfer to the external backup drive.. I did a 1.1 TB backup in 6 hrs. Not all the files where compressed, the DVD videos for example, where not. Thank you to luckybackup, krusader and peazip. You guys rock! Cheers and happy holidays!
Big Big Warm Thanks! for this app :)
I use Fedora9 and kde4.1 and when Ido "make" I have an error "make: *** Pas de cibles spécifiées et aucun makefile n'a été trouvé. Arrêt." excuse me I am french Why?
If there isn't any Makefile, you may have forgotten to run cmake first. please have a look in our INSTALL file http://krusader.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/krusader/trunk/krusader_kde4/INSTALL?view=markup
thank that's work...
There is problem with this version: when I click on tools/launch krusader as root/ nothing appears...
fixed in svn revision 6059: http://krusader.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/krusader?view=rev&revision=6059
Sorry but with the svn revision 6059 I have same result... I use Fedora9 with kde 4.1
it is a great pleasure to use kommander what a beautiful application ! bless you ! :-)
Honestly, I'm surprised with stability of 2.0-beta1. One thing though: Most icons are still KDE3 Crystal, I think it would be nice to set them to Oxygen in near future, for better integration with KDE4. Everything else is fine by me. I feel it's stable as if I'm still using KDE3 version. ;)
I recently switched from windows to centos and I was badly missing Total Commander. It seems that I've found the solution :) Even better as TC doesn't support sftp, so Krusader is actually a replacement for both TC and Winscp. Thank you so so so much for this great app !!!
Krusader is my favorite tool for handling files! While testing various functions in my Dutch version, I came across the last option "zatarovat and zagzipovat" in the main toolbar. What does this function?
Krusader is awesome; I just wish it would incorporate a feature that would change the current directory view to the directory the user cd's into the terminal. The terminal cd's to any directory the user navigates to in the directory view, but the directory view does not navigate to any directory cd'd into the terminal. I just think this would be a nice additional feature.
Also, I think it would be nice if, when entering Krusader Root Mode, that instead of opening another window, it would open it in the same window and provide an option to end Krusader Root Mode and return to normal mode. There seems to be a bug with the terminal emulator; it allows you to create a new tab but the tab doesn't actually switch, it just seems to open a renamed, duplicate link to the original one - i.e. if during installation of an app, you open another tab in the terminal, it continues showing the progress of the original tab and does not allow you to do anything until the first is complete. Overall, ignoring minor bugs and whatnot, I give Krusader a 10/10; it's definitely the best file manager I've ever used.
Yet again, if it is possible, it would be nice if Krusader would incorporate a feature allowing the user to open kioslaves for Konqueror; it already provides the Konqueror menu.
Krusader uses KIO from the beginning. Very KIO-slave you use with Konqueror works also with Krusader (and even in every KDE open/save dialog ;-))
Upload Krusader Extensions! The best Extensions will be included in the upcomming Krusader-1.90.0 "Power Stone" release.

Hi! I can't connect Krusader to ftp server using proxy with authority. It is my problem or krusader can't do that.
And if tell KDE proxy parameters, krusader's message is: "Unknown protocol "ftp://..."
Please read the FAQ I hope it helps to fix your problem http://krusader.sourceforge.net/handbook/faq_usage.html#faqu_ftp_http_proxy http://krusader.sourceforge.net/handbook/faq_usage.html#faqu_ftp_firewall
I think I found a bug as well. Latest Krusader beta isn't shutting down when told to. Is anyone else experiencing this? Krusader rocks btw, great work, wonderful tool. Thanks!
