Screenshot About:
Worker is a file manager for the X Window System with the classical two panel interface. It features a fully graphical configuration, while still allowing manual editing of the configuration file without the need to restart Worker. Any external program can be integrated easily into the GUI using buttons, hotkeys, and file type actions. Worker uses file recognition by file content or by filename extension (or both). Different actions with completely configurable commands can be assigned to each file type.

[»] EASILY my favorite file manager
by Steve C - Sep 6th 2002 01:15:46

This thing is soooo configurable. I set a ton of hotkeys and now i just fly thru file mgmt operations. Also I really like the start prog action - pops up a little window with the selected file/dir in it, and anything you type in gets run in a command shell.

The biggest thing is the UI paradigm. Gentoo is kinda like this but less configurable...no documentation, etc. Now I just gotta find something like this for my windows installation...right.

[»] linux gets a file manager
by tony summerfelt - May 27th 2002 13:49:13

finallly, somebody did it right :)

'worker' was popular on the amiga for a reason, i spent hours configuring the amiga version to get it just right, and i expect to spend time enjoying the 'worker' configuration. after spending 2 minutes with it, it became my favorite linux app.

[»] Wonder Worker
by Martin Curran - Oct 12th 1999 18:41:05

Could easily become the file manager to end all file managers.

Worker now works (1.3.2 compiles with Linux-Mandrake 6.0).

One of the killer apps on the Amiga was, strangely enough,
a file manager called Directory Opus. It evolved into a kind
of replacement for the Amiga's desktop 'Workbench'. Worker has
lovingly re-engineered the classic version 4 of Opus.

Ralf has done a fantastic job that will have Amiga users
wiping away a tear. Those who have never tried Opus should
check out Worker and experience a taste of the best file manager
created on any platform. Worker shows a great deal of promise,
and is more than usable in its current version.

Worker, like Opus, can be configured to do powerful work
with commands, from one click of a button. Offering simple,
graphical access to otherwise cryptic command syntax.

For those of us who like to click and drool, the dribbling gets
no better than this :-)
