Fire Fox, MX tools, MX updater, conkey manager, desktop setting, Thunar, places, Libre office, wine ( just for a Bible program like esword, all my other apps are Linux based) and I have recently discovered a nice little app that helps me retrieve a document rather fast called "catfish"

firefox, palemoon, mx tools, qbittorrent, Thunar (NOT my favourite file manager...that would be Krusader), xfce terminal, mpv, smplayer (Both far better than vlc in my opinion), digikam, gimp, libeoffice-writer.

Sadly, Krusader pulls in a heck of a lot of KDE packages, so does Digikam and the Debian version is ancient. I use Appimage for Digikam. I've not found a better alternative for Digikam in linux. Appimage works fine so I'm happy.

Wondering if anyone knows an alternative for Krusader. Twin-panel Orthodox File Manager with at least one side panel that can show file Preview and has an embedded terminal with lots of customization options.

Sunflower, Gnome Commander, Double Commander and a lot of others.

Tried sunflower and Doublecmd. Couldn't get Preview side panel to work. Sunflower didn't load terminal. Kept saying Python VTE module missing. libvte is installed but I couldn't find any python vte package in repos.

Also tried spacefm. Probably I'm too used to Krusader. Can't get all the features I want in another file manager. Most twin-panel file managers offer a tree-view or "Places" side panel. Not a big fan of that. I'm looking for either Preview or Information(as found in Dolphin) side panel. Preferably both but not even Krusader has both.
