Dual-pane file manager with recursive folder sizes & breakdown charts

A dual-pane filesystem navigator, recursive directory size analyzer, and file transfer utility for Linux. A lightweight Linux alternative to ExplorerEx for browsing two directories side-by-side with live folder size percentages, extension breakdowns, and verified file operations.

Key features:

  • Side-by-side dual-pane directory explorer starting at the user home folder with quick mountpoint bookmarks, dotfile toggling, and instant filename filtering.
  • Asynchronous background-thread recursive folder size calculation with inline visual percentage share bars and free disk space indicators via statvfs.
  • Visual directory treemap and file-extension storage breakdown chart showing byte totals, file counts, and largest items per file type.
  • Real dual-pane file management actions including byte-stream Copy, Move, Rename, New Folder, Delete, and streaming SHA-256 / MD5 / CRC32 hash verification.
  • Exports recursive directory size reports to CSV for storage auditing and cleanup planning.
