What's the point of terminal file managers (mc, ranger, nnn, etc)?
What's the point of terminal file managers (mc, ranger, nnn, etc)?
Who are these for? People who use the terminal but don't like running shell commands?
OK sorry for throwing shade. If you use one of these, honestly, what features do you use that make it worthwhile?

Keybindings compared to shell commands are just better imo compared to shell commands. And keybinds to insert filename/path to commandline (like Esc+Enter in mc or %s in ranger) are more useful to me than autocomplete. Also, multiple panels for running shell commands with arguments from different directories.
Did you know that "esc, enter" is actually a workaround for "alt+enter"?
