I'm dreaming of a Linux version of Total Commander

Yesterday, I installed Ubuntu in parallel on my Windows 10 PC and on my notebook for development purposes.

The tool I am missing the most is Total Commander or anything that comes close. I am not sure whether using wine and TC under Linux really is a good option and if all the plugins will work properly.

I am so happy that I can use a native TC under Windows and Android! :D TC for Android is already running under Android Linux, so maybe the step to an own native Linux version is not so big anymore. And the Linux community is also huge.

At work, I am working with a Mac. There I am also not entirely happy with the available file managers. At least there are good tools like 'Path Finder' or 'Commander One'. But Total Commander for Mac also is a dream for me in this environment, too.

I think I'm addicted to Total Commander! :roll:

You're right. The following is a good example: Total Commander versions for Linux and Mac ?

Sorry, I tried and failed to create a useful Linux version. Try other programs like the Krusader.

Search for "Double Commander", which comes very close to the TC (for Linux and Windows).

Use MidnightCommander

I also miss TC, I use mc (Midnight Commander). It has quite a lot of basic features like copy, past, view and unpacking tar files.
