Description

Unlike most terminal file managers out there, clifm replaces the ubiquitous TUI by a shell-like command line interface: all input and interaction is performed via commands.

It provides automatic files listing, files selection, bookmarks, tags, file filters, a zoxide-like directory jumper, directory and commands history, auto-cd and auto-open (via a built-in resource opener), bulk rename, shell commands execution, TAB completion (with deep FZF integration and file previews), fish-like autosuggestions, plugins, and a trash system, among other features.

Does the requested package meet the package requirements?

System, Compiled

Is the requested package released?

Yes

#31557

[triallax]

That line doesn't seem to be present anymore in the latest code, but this is mentioned in https://github.com/leo-arch/clifm/wiki/Introduction#goals:

Nonetheless, clifm works currently [...] not only on X86_64 architectures, but on i386 and ARM machines as well.

Hi @paper42, @mhmdanas. Thanks for your quick reply!

That line doesn't seem to be present anymore in the latest code

Yes, the OS/architecture restriction is gone

Nonetheless, clifm works currently [...] not only on X86_64 architectures, but on i386 and ARM machines as well.

Do you need me to remove that line from the docs?

EDIT: Done. That specific line was removed. There's still a reference to supported operating systems/architectures though in the README, but it just refers to tested platforms rather than to working platforms.

I've had a go at packaging this (#43045).

@leo-arch one observation, It looks like CHANGELOG maybe one version behind in the v1.11 tag - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/leo-arch/clifm/v1.11/CHANGELOG

[classabbyamp]

1.11 is in https://raw.githubusercontent.com/leo-arch/clifm/master/CHANGELOG

[leo-arch]

Thank you so much @gmbeard!

Yes, the CHANGELOG was accidentally left behind in this release, but as @classabbyamp observed, the up to date version is in master.
