Welcome to the project site of the Tux Commander application.
Tux Commander is a windowed file manager with 2 panels side by side similar to popular Total Commander or Midnight Commander file managers. The main goal of this project is to create powerful and user friendly file manager for Unix operating systems.
General features:
# Graphical application, uses GTK2 windowing toolkit
# Two directory panels side by side (vertical)
# Tabbed interface, buttons for quick access to favorite places
# Configurable mounter bar for quick access to removable media and network shares
# Multilingual user interface
# Basic VFS (Virtual File System) support, allowing you to browse archives and network places
# Extendable via plugin system, several VFS modules available in the distribution
# Portable, no installation required, usable right after the extraction
# Designed for GNOME and XFCE desktop environments while preserving complete independency (libraries are loaded dynamically when available)
# Extension-based file type actions (associations)
# Threaded file operations
# Large files (> 4GB) support
# Main application written in Object Pascal language (with FreePascal as default compiler), plugins are written in C/C++ language
# Sources available in GIT repository

Using Object Pascal language might be considered as limiting factor, however we recently switched to FreePascal compiler, solving many compatibility issues. Also, the x86_64 port was introduced and is officially supported as well as the i386 platform. PowerPC port is working, though issues may appear. Kylix compatibility will be still maintained.
This project uses Pascal GTK2 bindings from the gtk2 for pascal project, which are now part of FreePascal v2.0 distribution.
