I didn't realize that. Thanks for the note!

If you can confirm please share so I can update the program to use the default opener on OpenBSD. I think it might be open(1): https://man.openbsd.org/file.1 same as in iOS. But i need the confirmation before making the cha

> totally with in their right to challenge you on your claims Yes, and within the limits of common courtesy. The other utility does only one thing - reports disk usage so there's not much to compare. The dev did mention that `ncdu&#

I can think of at least 3 possible algorithms to use much much less memory even with a static snapshot of the complete subtree. And all of them are broken because the filesystem is supposed to stay online and change. It's realistically

In the just-released version 2.1, you can just select a file and press `^X` to delete it.

It wasn't a debate. You asked, I answered. And if you read carefully, there is _not_a_single_comment_ on the quality of a single other utility in the README. We recorded what we saw and I have shared the reason why. I am not going to r

... and much much slower, yes. I see you vouching around for alternatives in every comment thread here. No issues. But please explain what you are seeing in other utilities that's missing in `nnn`? I would be repeating myself, but we a

I think we are saying the same thing in different lingo. I am trying to say, you do not need to store it if you can have fast rescans. Coming to memory usage, if you store the sizes of every file you need 400K * 8 bytes = ~3 MB. Now `ncdu`

autojump: `nnn` comes with bookmarks for frequently visited dirs. You can look up the list anytime. fd: `nnn` integrates seamlessly with fzy (another blazing fast C utility).

In fact every operation would be slower in an interpreted or scripting language. It becomes evident on a Raspberry Pi, Linux subsystem for Windows (even on i7, yes), when opened within vim as a file chooser, or on Termux env (Android). `nnn

Just a minor note, `nnn` is available on Homebrew.

Author of `nnn` here. Thanks for the appreciation. Please let us know what you like in vifm which isn't available in `nnn` and we will consider the features. However, I must say the last thing we want to see in `nnn` is feature bloat.

Author of `nnn` here. I'm not very familiar with MC (sorry about that) as I don't use it so can't provide a meaningful/unbiased feature comparison. However, you can find the list of features in `nnn` here: https:/&

`nnn` supports in-place file renaming. It also comes with `vidir` integration.

`nnn` is not tied to a single editor. It can work with anything. Yesternight I ended up writing a plugin for vim as one of the users requested. So probably someone can contribute a plugin (?) for emacs as well. Unfortunately my understandin

Author of `nnn` here. It would really help if you let us know what you are looking for in a file manager. `nnn` is under active development for more than a year now and we are very open to constructive feedback and feature requests.

I started writing `nnn` because of 2 reasons: - I needed something that _performs_ on the Pi which I was setting up as a _media player_ for my 3-yr old. - `ranger` wasn't an option because of slow python deps and I found ranger's
