Ranger is a console file manager with VI key bindings. It provides a minimalistic and nice curses interface with a view on the directory hierarchy. It ships with "rifle", a file launcher that is good at automatically finding out which program to use for what file type.

Design Goals * An easily maintainable file manager in a high level language * A quick way to switch directories and browse the file system * Keep it small but useful, do one thing and do it well * Console based, with smooth integration into the unix shell

After half an hour, I give up. Even after reading the guide, I'm unable to perform even the simplest file action. I used yy to copy and pp to paste but it never worked. Mysteriously I copied a folder when I was trying to copy a jpg to another folder. I managed to create a new tab, but again, I could never get a file to copy into a new tab. I was able to browse and open files ok, but that's hardly a file "Manager".
