Not written in rust, yuck! 😆
How else is it going to fit inside of 25kb? Can they even make rust executables under 1GB?
Not sure where you got the 25kb number from.
This tool is written in go and is a 7.8 MB compiled binary.
Oh wow, a text based file manager is that big ? That’s half of my openwrt router’s memory
Because it’s a statically compiled binary, it tends to grow the size of the binary. Increases portability though.
What’s the big selling point compared to
ranger,nnn,yaziorbroot?I haven’t used any of the 3, but from a look over them superfile looks a lot more user friendly and has a nicer overall look.
Edit; the install process is rough though, complains about missing glibc but searching for that package in apt doesn’t show anything promising. It also seems to require some kind of third party font that isn’t included? I gave up lol that’s too much for me to deal with.
Glibc is the gnu c library. You wouldn’t just download that from apt. I’m surprised your Linux distro doesn’t already have that installed.
It’s definitely a big learning curve with how complex installing things on linux is haha, I’m still used to windows just open the exe installer and that’s it.
Feels like
diredandmc, but way more stylized and cool.
