There is a concept of nodes, the default node is the home directory
of the current user, you can establish more nodes by using the 'N'ode
command (similar to XTree/DOS' 'L'og (drive) command).
But avoid intersecting nodes, rather use META/F4-(new) 'N'ode then.

Btw, project development by original author Rob Juergens
indeed is discontinued since 2 years or so, unfortunately,
maybe there's a chance to find new developers ?

sounds plausible (I poked around a little).  On mine it's done with V.
A repeat count tells how many levels to expand.

I've seen a few (but since I have my own directory editor, I tend to pay
attention).  Now that I'm looking (probably hadn't compiled it for a couple
of years), yes, it's cute - but I don't (for example) see a way to navigate
above the home directory.  I assume there must be a way to fold up subtrees.
The integration with shell commands is poor - but that's because it insists
on being just like Norton in that respect.

xTree Gold is a dos based program where you can have two folders side by

I suppose most replies to your question will recommend mc, which is a
clone of Peter Norton's Midnight Commander. 

If you are more keyboard or emacs-oriented, you can configure emacs to
appear as two side-by-side windows. This I prefer to mc, for several
reasons. 

However, I use an application named FileCommander. The reason is that
I need process a large number of files quickly, and I've resigned
myself to the use of a mouse for that. FileCommander does the job very
well, although I doubt anyone else will mention  it.

Yes, I originally used it with OS/2. The file I downloaded, compiled
and now run without problem on debian is FileRunner-2.5.1.tar.gz. It
did depend on wish (I think), tk and tcl.

Now what you will notice is that mc has a cool feature in the Command 
menu and that is Undelete files. Works like a charm (ext2 only!). 
But... ;-( it is not in the Debian versions. So go to the mc page and 
download mc 4.6.0 and compile it with undelete in it...
