Ok, but technically, it's used as a "stable" application on, at least, Debian and Ubuntu (and probably many other distributions).

Otherwise it's a bug. Ok, so it's a bug. I just test it with sftp, and the folder is not refreshed when I create a directory or a file, from right click and "New". > > - I'm not sure having the tabs above the sidebar is good.

But I don't think browsers are designed to work full time with a sidebar, like a files manager. I don't think the comparaison is fully accurate.

But it's better than no release at all, especially for application still in development. Last official release is 2010-10-14 (according to http://sourceforge.net/projects/pcmanfm/files/ ), more than six months ago.
