Moxfm allows you to > browse your directory tree and to copy, move, link and delete > files in an intuitive way by simple drag-and-drop actions. > It provides context-sensitive popup menus. Directory displays > are updated automatically in regular intervals when the > contents of the directory changes. > The integrated application manager provides a kind of shelf on > which you can place your favorite applications, as well as the > files and directories you are currently working with. It also > allows you to access different groups of applications and files. > User-definable file types let you specify a command to be > executed when double-clicking on a file or dropping other files > onto it. Last not least, moxfm can automatically mount and > unmount special devices like floppies as you open and close the > corresponding directories (mount points) or copy files to them. > > I have written moxfm using the source code of the excellent > Athena widgets based xfm file manager. Moxfm uses configuration > files with the same format as xfm (except the device > configuration file). The program is not exactly a Motif port > of xfm, but additional features have been added, e.g. > support for multiple application windows. > > I have uploaded the sources of moxfm to > ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/applications/moxfm-src.tgz . > The most recent version of moxfm and binary releases for Linux, > HP-UX 9.x and IRIX 5.x are always available from my WWW page > http://ips105.desy.de:8765/~mai/moxfm .
