  1. Modern dual-pane file manager for MacOSX. Quick, efficient and keyboard-oriented.

Double Commander is open source, cross-platform and written with Lazarus / FPC : https://doublecmd.sourceforge.io/ But ... I am not able not to use Midnight Commander ...

True. Easily fixed with Explorer Patcher, though. Which, ironically, <i>is</i> FOSS. > And where in windows can you change the system shortcuts? I don't use it much any more and stopped early this century, so my knowledge here may be out of date. When I do, I use SharpKeys to put a GUI on editing the relevant registry keys for keyboard remapping. <a href="https://github.com/randyrants/sharpkeys">https://github.com/randyrants/sharpkeys</a> In the NT 3.x era, it was the properties of every EXE's PIF file.

  5. The most advanced dual pane file manager and file transfer client for macOS.
    There are couple which will have two panels by default, but in my opinion, ForkLift is very native macOS commander-like app -- https://binarynights.com.
