Thunar File Manager For Linux

Thunar File Manager For Linux.

Thunar is a modern file manager for the Xfce Desktop Environment. Thunar has been designed from the ground up to be fast and easy to use. Its user interface is clean and intuitive and does not include any confusing or useless options by default. Thunar starts up quickly and navigating through files and folders is fast and responsive.

It is available for both Debian 11 and LMDE5 in the repositories.

Thunar is developed by Benedikt Meurer and was originally intended to replace XFFM, Xfce's previous file manager.

It was initially called Filer but was changed to Thunar due to a name clash.

The main goal of the Thunar project is to create a file manager that is fast, clean, and easy to use.

It is designed to start up faster and be more responsive than some other Linux file managers, such as Nautilus and Konqueror.

Latest version: 4.18.6

Accessibility:

Accessibility, another goal of the project, is accomplished using GNOME Accessibility Toolkit.

Like the rest of Xfce, Thunar is designed to comply with standards, such as those stated at freedesktop.org.

Thunar is simple and lightweight by design, but its functionality can be extended through plugins.

Thunar is the Old Saxon name of god of thunder in Norse mythology and uses Mjölnir, Thor's hammer, as its icon.
