vifm

Flexible vi-like file manager using ncurses

Vifm is a file manager providing a vi-like usage experience. It has similar keybindings and modes (e.g. normal, command line, visual). The interface uses ncurses, thus vifm can be used in text-only environments. It supports a wide range of features, some of which are known from the vi-editor:

utf8 support
user mappings (almost like in vi)
ranges in command
line commands
user defined commands (with support for ranges)
registers
operation undoing/redoing
fuse file systems support
trash
multiple files renaming
support of filename modifiers
colorschemes support
file name color according to file type
path specific colorscheme customization
bookmarks
operation backgrounding
customizable file viewers
handy less-like preview mode
filtering out and searching for files using regular expressions
one or two panes view

With the package comes a plugin to use vifm as a vim file selector.
