efm

this project is currently being developed

a file manager that is lightweight and reliable. Aimed to be simple, yet functional. Written in C and only uses standard Linux libraries and packages.

System

Technically every Linux machine should be able to run efm. The ui might be buggy for different terminal applications. It's been tested on my Manjaro environment and Windows Terminal running WSL Ubuntu 20.04. Not tested with ssh.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/ekinakkaya/efm.git
cd efm
make && sudo make install clean
