OneFinger is a graphical shell for linux where you compose CLI commands with the mouse. You only have to type them once; later you can select themfrom a list. You also have a file browser to insert filenames without typing. It also features "narrowing".

New in 5.0 ---------- * Major usability, learnability: the user interface has been completely redesigned making heavy use of tab widgets. This results in less clutter (for example, now you only see two panels at once) and a more understandable structure. * Major usability: the "popup menus everywhere" approach introduced in OneFinger 4 has been dropped, due to user's complaints. We are back to the interaction style used in 3.X. * Usability: It is now easier to copy and move files (one click less). The "paste files here" action is selected automatically. * Usability: the status bar now shows the free disk space in the current folder. (previously you had to show the folder properties dialog to see the free disk space). * Usability: the current working directory for shell commands is now automatically synchronized with the currently visible folder in the file browser. So you don't need to set the working dir explicitely anymore. This was error-prone as you would often forget to do so. * Usability: OneFinger's "flexible listbox" widgets now use the more standard light background. As a bonus, the list can be distinguished more easily from the rest of the UI. * usability: the status bar calculates the overall size of selected files more accurately. * fixed bug: text in some special widgets (truncating buttons and labels) was not being centered vertically. * fixed bug: the go-to-parent button was not setting the correct sort mode for the parent dir.
