Anthilus

Anthilus is a lightweight file manager for your Linux terminal!

It can display directories, preview files, show file types, rename/move files, and delete things! It uses no external frameworks outsite of cc for compilation, with all the TUI rendering logic being written independently.

Install

You need Cargo to download Anthilus. There are directions here. For most Linux users, it's just this command:

curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh

You can install Anthilus by downloading it from crates.io:

cargo install anthilus

You can then run it with the anthilus command.

Configuring PATH

If your shell can't find Anthilus, you might not have configured your PATH. You'll need to place this line in your shell's config file (~/.bashrc for Bash users and ~/.zshrc for Zsh users):

export PATH="$PATH:~/.cargo/bin/"

Usage

Anthilus can be run without any flags or arguments, and will start in the current directory. Optionally, you can supply one argument that will be used as the starting directory. The --help flag can be used to print help text. The --log flag will print Anthilus' logs (located at ~/.cache/anthilus/anthilus.log).

Platform

Currently, Anthilus is only tested on Linux. It is probably not Windows-compatible, but might work with macOS.
