On: Ask HN: Is there other software similar to Vim and...

[GrollingGrakbor]

Vifm looks really interesting, and admittedly I haven't tried ranger. Will give them a go, thanks!

The others are all very fine pieces of software I all use but imo not nearly on the same level. They're essentially programs with fancy keyshortcuts.

[akrifari → GrollingGrakbor]

You should also check out nnn (https://github.com/jarun/nnn) if you're looking for terminal-based file manager.

[atmosx → akrifari]

IIRC the golden standard is midnight commander ( https://midnight-commander.org/ ), which is another old timer. I wonder how nnn and vifm compare to mc.
