README
A dual-pane file manager for macOS inspired by times when Dos Navigator was the king.
---
## Features
- **Dual-pane navigation** with Tab to switch between panes
- **S3 support** — browse and transfer files to/from any S3-compatible storage (AWS, MinIO, Backblaze B2, etc.)
- **Integrated terminal** — bottom panel (Cmd+T), Quake-style drop-down (Cmd+\`), or in-pane mode (Cmd+Shift+T)
- **Git integration** — panel header shows repo indicator with branch name, ahead/behind status, dirty flag, pull button, and branch switcher
- **File viewer** (F3) — text with line numbers, image preview, hex dump
- **File editor** (F4) — built-in text editor with dirty-state tracking
- **Search** (Cmd+F) — search by file name or file content with streaming results
- **Archive browsing** — navigate inside zip, rar, and 7z archives as if they were directories (requires `brew install 7zip`)
- **File watcher** — panels auto-refresh when files change on disk
- **Quick filter** — type to filter the file list in real time
- **Directory sizes** — selecting a directory calculates its recursive size (configurable in Preferences)
- **Selection** — click, Cmd+click to toggle, Shift+click for range, or rubber-band (marquee) drag in empty space
- **Drag and drop** — drag files between panels to copy (or Shift+drag to move)
- **Sidebar** — favorites, workspaces, mounted devices, S3 connections, theme toggle (Cmd+B to open, press again to focus for keyboard navigation)
- **Preferences** — icon size, hidden files, external editor, startup sound (accessible via F9 menu)
- **Dark / Light theme** — auto-detects OS preference, toggle with Cmd+Shift+L
- **Icon and list views** — switch between list and grid layouts with configurable icon sizes
