Midnight commander can be used in local console or terminal emulator in any graphical environment or via ssh because it has a Text User Interface (TUI). Mailing lists on GoogleGroups are set up to read Trac messages only and are not an appropriate place to discuss MC bugs and solutions.

X File Explorer (Xfe)
Roland65
X File Explorer (Xfe) is an MS-Explorer or commander-like file manager for X. It is based on the popular, but discontinued, X Win Commander, originally developed by Maxim Baranov. Xfe is developed in 2002 by Roland Baudin, a french Linux enthusiast. Why another file manager when many excellent choices exist already? Why not use a full-blown, animated, bells-and-whistles file manager like Konqueror, Nautilus, or Rox? Although all these file managers are feature rich and cleverly designed, let's face it, they are huge! If you're a console addict, a light desktop user, or have an older system, resource-hogging file managers just aren't the way to go. Especially since most file managers are Desktop dependent (KDE, Gnome, Xfce, etc.), requiring you to load all kinds of unwanted bloat onto your system. Xfe is small, very fast, and only requires the FOX library to be fully functional. Plus, it can be launched from the command line in a fraction of a second.Starting Price: Free -
