Welcome to the homepage of Jfilerunner

Jfilerunner is a file manager for UNIX/Linux systems. It is written in 100% pure Java, though it depends on some external programs found on all UNIX/Linux systems (see the README file). Jfilerunner is a file manager in the Midnight Commander-style tradition, meaning that it uses two side-by-side panels for performing various file operations, with one panel being the "source" and the other being the "destination". Jfilerunner is free software and is distributed under the GNU General Public License, including source code.

Requirements Bug
On many newer Linux systems, there is a problem with how file information is displayed. If you get an error message saying "String index out of range: -1", then your system is affected. Read the instructions here for the solution to the problem.
