Twenty-one short reads to take you from first install to muscle-memory power user. Each one is five minutes or less.
Drag the .dmg, grant the disk-access prompt, and you’re browsing files in under a minute.
Read →Why two panes are better than one. Source, destination, and the magic of F5.
Read →The eight keys that get you 90% of the way there. Print this page, tape it to your monitor.
Read →F5 copies. F6 moves. Master the two-pane workflow that makes every other file manager feel slow.
Read →Quick filter, deep search, regex, content grep. Two layers of search — both keyboard-driven, both respect .gitignore.
Compare two folders side-by-side. Sync the differences. Resolve mismatches in one keyboard-driven view.
Read →A real shell, always synced to the active pane. Two panes, two cursors, one workflow.
Read →See status badges and colours right in the pane, stage and commit from the right-click menu, and diff a changed file against HEAD.
Read →Compare two folders and mirror the differences — one-way or two-way — with a clear preview before anything moves.
Read →Find what’s eating your drive. Drill into the biggest folders by size, per volume, without leaving the app.
Read →A holding area for files. Collect items from many folders as you browse, then drop the whole batch in one place.
Read →Mount remote servers as local panes. Edit, copy, move — same keyboard, same workflow. Reads ~/.ssh/config automatically.
Buckets as panes. Profiles, presigned URLs, multipart uploads — all keyboard-driven. R2, B2, MinIO too.
Read →For when you must — explicit and implicit TLS, passive mode, the lot. With safety nets for the truly old appliances.
Read →Browse your cloud storage as a pane and move files to and from it with the same two-pane workflow.
Read →A walk through every Preferences tab. What each toggle does, and the ones worth changing first.
Read →A loving recreation of the 1986 original — VGA palette, double-line borders, the lot. 1986 on a Retina display.
Read →Edit /etc, set permissions on system files, work with sudo — safely, with confirmation, with audit log.
Every binding in Captain’s Deck. Print it. Bookmark it. Wallpaper it.
Read →hjkl motion, visual mode, gg/G, zz/zt/zb — and the Vim layout preset that adds single-key verbs like y, p, and dd.
Read →Save a paired-pane layout — both paths, both tabs — and bring it back in one step whenever you return to a project.
Read →The full reference for every command, setting, and API — searchable, deep-linkable, dark-mode-aware.
