That's my thinking as well. It is different from Konqueror but it does the job pretty well and seems to be pretty light and fast. The biggest thing, it allows running as root. I've been really busy recently. My Mom was in the hospital for several weeks, that's a long time here. After that, she was in a nursing home trying to get her strength back and had a few set backs while there. She comes home tomorrow and is in better shape than she was over a year ago. Maybe even a couple years ago. That has kept me busy and pretty much wore out at times. I have health issues of my own. So, I haven't been able to really dig deep into Krusader as yet. Basically, I got it to where I can edit files in /etc and /root and pretty much left it as is. The one thing I'd like to change, being able to click/double click on a file and it open. That's how Dolphin and the old Konqueror was set up. As it is, you have to hit F4 to edit which opens Kwrite/Kate depending on settings for text files. I also wish it wouldn't separate the file name and the extension. I prefer them to be together. Heck, I might use Krusader as a regular user if I could get that last one configured right. ;-) I really do need to research that more. Do you have a link to that pdf? I'm on version 2.7.1. but any recent version would be nice. Thanks. Dale :-) :-)
