Worker is a file manager for X-Window on UNIX.

The dirs and files are shown in two independent panels (similar to MidnightCommander).

Here are some key features of "Worker":
runs directly under X11, so it's fast and has low requirements
completely graphical
With the also graphical built-in configuration program you can change the configuration without restarting the program
many built-in functions like:
copy/move
rename
delete
create dir
create/change symlinks
and many more...
With the so called "own command" any external program can be integrated into the GUI and they can also use the selected files to work with them.
With it the functionality can be easily expanded and Worker can be used as a GUI for programs without a GUI (e.g. tar, diff, rcs, mount, ...)

Requirements:
A running UNIX-Sytem
A running X-Window-System
C++-Compiler (GCC recommended)

Worker was developed using the following configuration:

Slackware 7.0
