VFU is console (text mode) file manager for UNIX/Linux.
I made all possible to make VFU cover all file managing needs and offer large
set of behaviour options. If I succeeded or not, you can decide for yourself but
without trying I believe noone can say for sure.
Thank you if you did try VFU! If you still haven't, you are welcome to do so :)
Remember that 'H' key inside the main VFU list is _HELP_ information!
Good luck!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

but since I have no access to Solaris machines, there's no maintainer...
Maintainer wanted!

Generally, VFU should compile on every UNIX platform if there's curses library available...
If someone have compiled VFU for some other OS, please, tell me.
I'd appreciate any feedback. Thanks! :)
