ranger (or rangerfm) is also quite nice. It provide a 3 columns view with either: * parent directory | current directory | child directory * parent directory | current file | preview of the file (if possible in text) I found it quite nice to use because it gives you a good picture of where you are and what are your neighboring files, which can be helpful when navigating inside a code base.
