The one I use for years and years now, something I cannot live without anymore: Directory Opus. You can costumize everything. It works with ftp. Moving files has its own transfer system which is faster then windows. It has one folder tree and 2 folder screens next to eachother, each with tabs. I've tried several file browsers, but this one is by far the very best. It took the best from all file browsers and combines them. As options, so you may have a totally different one as to I have, fit to preference.
Edit: a free alternative is Total Commander. 2 windows, tabs, just no folder tree.
I second Directory Opus. It's a very good file browser.
Directory Opus not having a Linux version is one of the sad mysteries of the universe
I completely agree. I want to switch to Linux as I'm done with the atrocities of Microsoft. No Dopus makes it hard for me to actually make the switch, and I keep on postponing.
Just for completeness the very similar FreeCommander
Multi renaming, filter for current view, tabs (which could be cloned, locked and renamed), bookmarks, flatview of all subfolders, an advanced search and a few shortcuts to some windows folders.
Nice! Sadly though, I do not see a Linux version, same as Directory Opus :'(
