Roamer: A Plain-Text File Manager
For things like renaming files, I use a similar utility called "qmv", from renameutils.[1]  It is super useful, and one of my most-used commands in the terminal.<p>For many other file-related operations in my terminal I use Midnight Commander.[2]<p>I've tried emacs' dired-mode, but I didn't see it being particularly useful compared to Midnight Commander without a ton of time spent on configuring it to work the way I like.  I might do that sometime, but until then, Midnight Commander already has so many useful features without any of the time commitment or pain of virtually rewriting much of the same functionality in emacs.<p>[1] - <a href="http://www.nongnu.org/renameutils/" rel="nofollow">http://www.nongnu.org/renameutils/</a><p>[2] - <a href="https://www.midnight-commander.org" rel="nofollow">https://www.midnight-commander.org</a>
