Far Manager is a text based app designed to easily manage your files and file archives. Edit, copy, rename files and more.Far part of the title is actually an acronym for file and archive Manager which gives you a good idea of what the program can do. The old school text-based interface of Far Manager is quick and easy to use since it lacks no graphics or interface to load. Don't let this fool you. Far Manager has been in constant development since around 2000 so it has had a lot of time to pack a ton of features and usability into the program. However, as you can see in the screenshots, it might not be as pretty and polished as the competition - but it gets the job done. It also supports multiple languages, and the interface does have some configuration options. In short, file navigation is made easier with highlighting and colored trees.Far Manager can also do much more with plugins. While many of these plugins add more functionality there are some that go even further. For example, managing FTP servers, emails, text conversion, registry editing, a few games and much more.Download
