Ranger v.1.1.0 ============== Ranger is a free console file manager that gives you greater flexibility and a good overview of your files without having to leave your *nix console. It visualizes the directory tree in two dimensions: the directory hierarchy on one, lists of files on the other, with a preview to the right so you know where you'll be going. The default keys are similar to those of Vim, Emacs and Midnight Commander, though Ranger is easily controllable with just the arrow keys or the mouse. The program is written in Python (2.6 or 3.1) and uses curses for the text-based user interface.

Just run the executable (in a terminal.) The switch "--clean" will prevent it from creating or accessing configuration files. Follow the instructions in the INSTALL file for installing ranger. After starting ranger, you should see 4 columns. The third one is the main column, the directory where you're currently at. To the left you see the parent directories and to the right there's a preview of the object you're pointing at. Now use the Arrow Keys to navigate, Enter to open a file or type Q to quit. To customize ranger, copy the files from ranger/defaults/ to ~/.ranger/ and modify them according to your wishes. Troubleshooting, Getting Help ----------------------------- If you encounter an error, try running ranger with --debug. This will sometimes display more detailed information about the error. Also, try deactivating optimization: PYTHONOPTIMIZE="" ranger --debug Report bugs on savannah: (please include as much information as possible) http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=additem&group=ranger Ask questions on the mailing list: http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/ranger-users Further Reading --------------- Check the man page for information on common features and hotkeys. The most detailed manual is accessible by pressing "?" from inside ranger. It is also available at ranger/help/, contained in the *.py files. The file ranger/defaults/keys.py contains all key combinations, so that's another place you may want to check out.
