Vifm

Vifm is a curser based vi[m] like file manager extended with some useful ideas from mutt. If you use vi[m], vifm gives you complete keyboard control over your files without having to learn a new set of commands. It goes not just about vi[m] like keybindings, but also about modes, options, registers, commands and other things you might already like in vi[m].

Prerequisites

vim is a prerequisite for vifm.

For Windows machines

There is a binary that can be downloaded. It works well in Windows machines.

If the path to vim is not added to path, we may see errors like this:
