Ranger is a file manager with an ncurses interface. It is designed to give you a broader overview of the file system by displaying previews and backviews, dividing the screen into several columns. The keybindings are similar to those of other console programs like vim, mutt, or ncmpcpp, so the usage will be intuitive and efficient.

Davenport is a Java Servlet-based application
providing WebDAV access to an entire SMB network.
This enables users to connect to Windows and Samba
shares via WebDAV clients such as Mac OS X,
Windows Web Folders, etc. or any Web browser.
Workgroups are browseable, and users are
authenticated against a domain. WebDAV clients can
upload, download, create directories, etc.
Non-WebDAV clients (i.e., "normal" Web browsers)
can also access the network of shares and download
files. When run over HTTPS, this application
provides a reasonably secure means of accessing an
internal Windows/Samba network over the Internet
without requiring a VPN.

DirsSync is a python tool to synchronise 2 directories. This application will synchronise all the files and all the sub-directories, and prompt the user to confirm all the moves.

gcp (Goffi's CoPier) is a command line file copying tool, loosely inspired by cp, but with high level functionality like a progress indicator, the ability to continue copying multiple files even when there is a problem with one of them, and the use of a journal to track successful copying. File names can be fixed to ensure compatibility with the target filesystem. If you launch a copy operation when another is already running, the files are added to the first queue to avoid hard drive thrashing. You can keep track of files you have copied, and re-copy them later. gcp is approximately option-compatible with cp.

BFM (Brutal Filemanager) is a mixture between a
filemanager and a 3D shoot-'em-up game. In fact,
you can't really manage the files yet, just shoot
them up. Be carefull when using BFM! Some
weapons, such as the shotgun, have spread. So
files you didn't really aim at might get ...
wasted. Start BFM with the '-s' for safemode and
your files shall stay unhurt. It is written in
Java and uses the Java3D API.

OneFinger is a general-purpose GUI for composing
CLI commands with the mouse. Although entirely
graphical, it does not attempt to hide the underlying
CLI language. It increases your productivity over
classical hand-typing by caching commands typed into
terminals, which tend to be highly repetitive.
Repeated commands can be selected from a list,
ordered by last usage time. It includes an integrated
file browser that helps you insert filenames without
typing them. and allows you to see only those
programs that make sense with a given file.

DiskSearch is a tool for searching for files on all your removable media disks, including CDs, ZIP disks, and backup tapes. It allows you to search for songs on your MP3 CDs or for a document on your backup DVDs. For advanced queries, a regular expression search mode is provided. Searches are based on a simple database file, which needs to be filled once by adding all your disks to it.

TomP2P is a P2P-based high performance key-value pair storage library. Each peer has a table (either disk-based or memory-based) to store its values. A single value can be queried or updated with a secondary key. The underlying communication framework uses Java NIO to handle many concurrent connections.

PhpCommander is a Web-based file manager that manages Web accounts without FTP access. It can create directories, create files, copy, move, delete, and rename files and folders, upload files, download files, view and edit the contents of the files, and communicate in English and other languages.

Xplorer is a file manager with fast and accurate
filetype detection. It has a tree and a list field
displaying the contents of your local filesystem.
Drag and drop, and cut and paste are supported
along with deleting, renaming, and creating files.
It does not have embedded file viewers, but
launches the external applications of your choice.
The package runs directly on Xlib and does not
have a dependency on external toolkits.

4Pane is a four pane detailed-list file manager
for Linux. It is designed to be fully-featured
without bloat, and aims for speed rather than
visual effects. In addition to standard file
manager things, it offers multiple undo and redo
of most operations (including deletions), archive
management including 'virtual browsing' inside
archives, multiple renaming/duplication of files,
a terminal emulator, and user-defined tools.
