Despite some minor shortcomings, you can forget about proprietary Total Commander and use the free Double Commander.Free Download Double Commander full version standalone for Windows. I do not like light color theme for my files. Frankly speaking, I have not used Double Commander on Linux for a long time and do not plan to do it - mc (Midnight Commander) is our all :) For example, I still have a very slow rendering when resizing the window with the mouse. This is especially evident when using the plugins from Total Commander - Double Commander periodically issues an error and crashes. Periodically, there are disadvantages or drawbacks. However, to date (version 0.4.5.2), there are some problems with the folding of long lines. Built-in viewer and editor as a whole looks very good and promising. No wrapping in the embedded text editor.Total Commander displays the contents almost instantly. Of course not really, but for a while waiting for the opening of the directory still exists. ![]() Thus, the shortcomings of Double Commander: Next, click the “Add” button and select the unzipped WFX-file.īy the way for the functioning of the UTF-8 do not forget to create a file ex2fs.ini in a directory with a wfx-file. Then, go to the settings dialog “Configure - Plugins - File system plugins”. For simplicity, I extract it to a subfolder plugins of program. Installing the plugins into Double Commander is exactly 3 times harder than Total Commander :D This means that just to click 2 times on the archive is not enough - you need to unpack it anywhere. The viewer also has no problems with viewing text files and allows you to change the encoding on the fly. Also with version 1.4 supports UTF-8, which solved the problem with strange symbols instead of letters, if your system language is not English. This plugin also allows you to display ReiserFS/Ext2/Ext3/Ext4 partition almost like a local folder (read only). To run a separate program for that is lazy and strange. Periodically you need to download a music form Linux-partition, watch some config files. Well, the most important super opportunity is the support for plugins from Total Commander. That is, you simply start typing the file name on the keyboard and the cursor automatically moves to the closest match. “Quick Search - Letter only” turns on a quick search, similar to Total Commander. At the result you can easily work using the keyboard arrows only. To return to the directory above - the left arrow. This means that to go to the directory you can press Enter or the right arrow. ![]() One of the most pleasant surprises was “Behaviors - Lynx like movement”. For example, to get a Double Commander as in the previous screenshot, I used the following layout configuration:Ī little more cool features of Double Commander.

If you lose where you are, it is enough to look at this line and everything will be clear :)ħ - tabstop header. After closing the tab ( Ctrl + W), the line will disappear automatically.Ħ - current directory name. Just uncheck this and tabs bar will appear only when creating the second tab ( Ctrl + T). Fortunately, Double Commander has the option of “Folder tabs - Show tab header also when there is only one tab”. However, with just one tab it is not rational to display it as on-screen space is wasted. It’s a very useful thing when working with files. The 4 line except buttons drive has useful buttons on the right: the return to a higher level, moving into a home / root directory, menu, the favorite directories, which is proposed to replenish itself to the user.ĥ - tabs. I have used them occasionally in Total Commander, but in Double Commander somehow immediately liked the selection button of the current drive in the 4 line. So it’s great that there is an opportunity to disable this toolbar.ģ - disk buttons. Personally, I have it all either on the desktop or in the Quick Launch toolbar. In the screenshot the main used programs are placed: GIMP, a notepad, a browser, a player. By default, there is quite a few buttons, the usefulness is questionable.
