Fuck you and your shitty thread. Cunt.

What should I be using instead of a file manager?

>>60977752
bash and GNU coreutils

just put shortcuts on the desktop or search for a file, its still faster and less clicks/taps

>>60978098
no, no its not

>>60978109
as someone who is used to both gui and cli, I can assure you that cli is much more efficient
and you, as someone who obviously hasn't, have no basis on which to judge

>>60978153
am forced to use it for work, ended up making bash scripts to cd to all the places i need to go and call whatever i need to do

ok, so ponder this:
i need to find a photo of that qtπ from the new years party two years back, i have my photos in folder by year and they are all named "IMG_20170617_110140.jpg" or whatever.
much faster to find that specific photo with a ui. Sort by date, image preview - done

feh run from the command line is more powerful than any graphical file manager for managing images

I can bind actions like moving images to different directories to numbers and sort them out faster than it could ever be done with a normal file manager

>I can bind actions like moving images to different directories to numbers and sort them out faster than it could ever be done with a normal file manager
the time you waste by typing out one line in the terminal is compensated by the time you save just selecting images

Did someone try fman? The concept sounds interesting, basically a very st3-inspired filemanager: Python Plugin API, mostly keyboard driven, similar looks.

>>60983845
You just use autocomplete 13 times, duh.

how else do you manage your files?

>>60983968
There are file managers for the terminal, I'm more than certain OP meant a GUI file manager since mc and ranger is very popular on /g/. With ranger you can even do image previews on certain terminals.

ITT people who don't know the difference between CLI, GUI and TUI

>>60983845
different anon, I try to cut corners sometimes with variables I have exported in my .profile
Still use thunar heavily though but starting to use keyboard more often on it. Barely configured it with custom actions, god those are a pain to keymap after every change.
I3+XFCE is getting pretty damn comfy, been hopping all over the place. Just biding my time until SWAY improves so I can get rid of screen tearing and retain most of my configuration.

clicking something is much faster than typing a long path manually and holding some key many seconds to fix something if you made a typo because you cant select that text with a mouse like you can in guis.

>>60978366
now remove x and try that with the real terminal.

>>60988094

it's faster to type one or two letters for each directory while pressing tab than searching for it with your eyes in the gui and pointing and clicking

>>60988190
st is the only terminal emulator that does not use >10mb ram. and people that use x terminal emulators do that just so they can shitpost on /g/ and they need to google the commands and paste them in their terminal and thats not possible without x.

Fucking newfags

>>60988258
You just made literally the single best post on /g/ in over a year.

>>60988283
/g/ is not /a/ 2.0, it's a shitty fork of /a/ stored in a different branch of the same repository that nobody cares about

>>60988300
This definition is fine too

>>60988283
this board is for technology not anime posts that have nothing to do with technology. its fine if the post with an anime image has something technology related in it too but it does not belong on /g/ if the post is only about anime.

It doesn't matter how you store and access your data, the effort put into developing quicker ways to find an address are better spent finding better ways to store and arrange those addresses

Essentially, if you're organized enough, the two methods are effectively identical

>>60987945
Image preview so you don't have to open them individually is the selling point for ranger for me, but I only use it if I need it.

I don't care about feh, can feh move files?

>>60988445
Yes.

>>60988247
>>60988261
>>60988284
y-you too

>>60988451
What about >>60988106 would feh still work even with X disabled?

>>60988445
yes, see >>60978665
example:
lets say you want to move some images from ~/downloads to ~/images/anime and ~/images/wallpapers
you can start feh like this

feh --action1 'mv %F ../images/anime' --action2 'mv %F ../images/wallpapers'

you can make a wrapper to shorten the switches to something like

feh -1 'mv %F ../images/anime' -2 'mv %F ../images/wallpapers'

or since you move files a lot, maybe even make the wrapper parse -m{1..9} just as switches for moving files to the argument passed to them

feh -m1 ../images/anime -m2 ../images/wallpapers

now you can just press 1 to move the image to anime and 2 to move it to wallpapers when you're in feh
you can open it in thumbnail mode, and still pres 1 or 2 to move images while selecting the thumbnails
using feh is the most efficient way to sort images that I've found

>>60976990
Isn't anime. A.I. is a virtual youtuber.

>>60988510
no, I guess ranger is the only way to go outside of xorg for now at least

>>60988541
*bacharu yuchuba

someone should make feh work in the framebuffer
how hard can it be?
links2 works fine and displays images in the framebuffer
