After moving from Windows to MacOS mc is the closest to Total Commander - the only software that I’m still missing from MacOS. Reminds me to DOS Navigator and Volkov Commander or even FAR

Try doublecmd[1], much better then tc, open source, updated frequently, works on all platforms. Oh and written in object pascal, which I like a lot! [1]: https://doublecmd.sourceforge.io https://doublecmd.sourceforge.io

  Tried it on linux. It crashed while moving folder. Like the main thing it's used for.

    It works fine for me. When did you tested it?

Well while note open-source (but still free), Marta is the best MacOS TotalCommander alternative: https://marta.sh/ https://marta.sh/

Midnight Commander is available under Brew. https://brew.sh/ https://brew.sh/ The command to install it is: brew install mc

  Thanks, your comment was the one I was looking for, even though I had guessed that ‘brew install mc’ would work. I am curious how mc will fit in with tmux and emacs-nw.

    With tmux it is seamless, screen as well. I don't know anything about Emacs =)

  The command to install it is: brew install mc The Midnight Commander web site says to use % brew install midnight-commander

    mc is an alias to it.

Volkov Commander was so fast on my 486, amazing thing. Think it was written in assembly to get that speed.

FAR was awesome.
