diskette

Diskette is a cross-platform dual-pane terminal file manager in the style of classic Total Commander/Midnight Commander, built on the graphite TUI framework.

Features:
- Two navigable panes with an F-key action bar (Info, Rename, Find, Grep, Copy, Move, MkDir, Delete, Menu, Quit)
- Tabs per pane: file lists, embedded terminals, and remote connections, with pinned tabs restored on next launch
- Remote panes over SFTP and FTP/FTPS, with SFTP host-key TOFU verification
- Zip/unzip archiving, generic across local and remote panes
- File name search (F3) and grep-style content search (F4): literal or regex, recursive, case-sensitive, name-mask filterable
- Tagging: tag/untag, select all, deselect all, invert selection
- An embedded terminal that can drive the file panes via `diskette view`/`sync`/`tag`/`untag`/`select`
