What is Worker
Worker is an filemanager for the X-Window-System. You have many possibilities to
handle your files. (If you know "DirectoryOpus" from AmigaOS, you will like it)
The directories will be displayed in two independent listers (like MidnigtCommander)
and many other informations. For working with files, just select them with mouse or
keys and click on a button or press a key for corresponding action.
Any extern program can integrated in worker for handle files in other ways then
the builtin-functions.
Also Worker uses real-filetype-recognition (using the file-structure not only the
extension). Each type can do an own action.
some advantages:
-
full graphic
-
the whole configuration is done under X, so there is no need (and no possibility)
to edit textfiles. Also worker´s configuration can be changed while running.
-
You need only the X-Development-files.
-
easy and endless extension of functions
-
Language-Support without recompiling.
