X File Explorer

X File Explorer (Xfe) is a filemanager for X. It is based on the popular, but discontinued, X Win Commander. Xfe is desktop independent and is written with the C++ Fox Toolkit. It looks similar to Windows Commander or MS-Explorer, and is very fast and simple. It features file associations, the ability to mount/umount devices, a directory tree for quickly changing directories, the ability to change file attributes, automatic registry saving, the ability to view/create/extract compressed archives, and much more.

Just the Ticket
Recently took my 75-year-old mother-in-law out of the world of winviruses. Xfe provides the functionality she needs on her desktop, without the overhead of a highly integrated, highly touted "Desktop Environment".

Perfect for me
Superb addition to the aterm, clex and midnight commander.

Best of all, no need for GNOME or KDE. Lovely.
