Barry Kauler ☛ PCmanFM, MC, NetSurf packages
XFE file manager is being discussed on the forum:
It would be good to have more file managers in the package repository, so I have compiled PCmanFM and Midnight Commander (MC) in OpenEmbedded. The former is a gtk+3 app, the latter an ncurses console app.
