TkDesk-static
Graphical desktop manager. Static build with tcl7.6/tk4.2 for RH 5.0.
/Main/Other/i386/X11/Applications/TkDesk is a graphical desktop and file manager for several brands
of UNIX (such as Linux) and the X Window System. It offers a very
rich set of file operations and services, and gives the user the
ability to configure most aspects of TkDesk in a powerful way. The
reason for this is the use of Tcl/Tk as the configuration and (for
the biggest part of TkDesk) implementation language.
TkDesk has been influenced by various other systems and file managers:
NeXT, for laying out the file browser windows, Apple Finder, for the
idea of file annotations and, (shock horror), Windows 95, for some
other (of course minor and unimportant ;-)) inspirations.
This is a brief overview of the most prominent features of TkDesk:
o Arbitrary number of automatically refreshed file browsers and file
list windows,
o Configurable file-specific popup-menus,
o Drag and drop,
o Files and directories may also be dropped onto the root window,
o Configurable application bar, with several displays and cascadable
popup menus for each button, files can also be dropped here,
o History of visited directories, opened files, executed commands
and many other things, which is automatically saved to disk,
o Find files through their annotation, name, contents, size or age,
o Trash can for safe "deletion" of files and directories,
o Calculation of disk usage for directory hierarchies,
o All file operations (find, copy, disk usage, etc.) are carried out
in the background,
o Traversal of directory hierarchies through recursive cascaded menus,
o Bookmarks, create menu entries for often used files/directories,
o Comprehensive hypertextish online help (slightly out of date in this
release...),
o Built-in multi-buffer editor, providing virtually unlimited undo,
o Remote control of Netscape and XEmacs,
o Sound support,
o Powerful on-the-fly configuration of nearly all aspects of TkDesk
using Tcl/Tk, allowing for unlimited extensibility,
o Free of charge! But see the file COPYING, or menu entry
