Thunar

The Thunar project aims at developing a new file manager for the next major branch of Xfce (the 4.4 branch). The main goal is to provide a fast and easy to use alternative to Xffm; therefore, Thunar should be kept simple.

The name Thunar is just the project name. The release name may be different from Thunar. The current list of suggestions for the release name is available from the Release Name page.

• User Interface (with screenshots !)
