Krusader Krew
Description
Krusader is an advanced twin panel (commander style) file manager for Plasma and other desktops in the
*nix world, similar to Midnight or Total Commander. It provides all the file management features you
could possibly want. Plus: extensive archive handling, mounted filesystem support, FTP, advanced search
module, viewer/editor, folder synchronization (disabled by default), file content comparisons, powerful
batch renaming and much much more. It supports the following archive formats: ace, arj, bzip2, deb, gzip,
iso, lha, rar, rpm, tar, xz, zip, and 7-zip 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! :-) You
should give it a try.

• $ krusader --left=/home,/usr,smb://workgroup.net --right=fish://myserver.net
