Total Commander

• doublecmd

  33 2,325 9.7 Pascal

  Double Commander is a free cross platform open source file manager with two panels side by side.

  

Very useful, I bought it years ago and used it on Windows. I've been using only Linux for about 10 years now, but I'd like to use Total Commander on Linux.

Double Commander is open source, cross-platform and written with Lazarus / FPC : https://doublecmd.sourceforge.io/

But ... I am not able not to use Midnight Commander ...

  SharpKeys is a utility that manages a Registry key that allows Windows to remap one key to any other key.

> Total commander isn’t FOSS.

I'm aware of that. There are lots of FOSS equivalents, though. Including, I believe, on Windows. Wikipedia lists 23 of which I think -- haven't checked -- the majority are FOSS.

> Ironically windows 11 can’t do vertical taskbars.

True. Easily fixed with Explorer Patcher, though. Which, ironically, is FOSS.

> And where in windows can you change the system shortcuts?

I don't use it much any more and stopped early this century, so my knowledge here may be out of date.

When I do, I use SharpKeys to put a GUI on editing the relevant registry keys for keyboard remapping.

In the NT 3.x era, it was the properties of every EXE's PIF file. So I set Crtl+Alt+(initial) to open my most used apps. Ctrl+Alt+D for DOS, E for Excel, W for Word, etc.

This still works with limitations under Win9x through to XP, which is when I jumped off the Windows ship.

But mostly it's about learning the many many built-ins.
