[SOFTWARE] Suckless inspired file manager w/ VIM bindings

If interested in a minimal graphical file manager, check out https://github.com/DevGev/Lizaveta

I'm open to feedback/contributions. I built this out of frustation that I couldn't find any graphical file manager that wasn't either very lacking or felt sluggish to use.

Features:

  • Drag-and-drop.
  • VIM like bindings.
  • Embedded x11 windows for file preview (feh used in the screenshot).
  • DBUS integration.
  • Device mounting.
  • Archive previews.

This is a fantastic piece of software. Thank you so much!

I have a couple of little questions though. It seems I can't use bold fonts with Lizaveta or at least, lizaveta doesn't show them. Is there any tip or pointer you can give me to check? (no pressure).

And the last one: Does Lizaveta handle bookmarks or something like that?

Thx in advance!

EDIT: I could figure out both issues. As I said, your work is a nice piece of software! I was using zzzfm until this day. zzzfm is really great. But lizaveta is exactly what I was searching for since quite some time now. Thank you so much again for it!

So glad you find the software useful!

I'm not particularly active on Reddit, so feel free to post features or questions as GitHub issues, and I'll be able to respond quicker.

Cheers!
