Eagle Mode is a zoomable user interface (ZUI) with file manager, file viewers, games, and more.

This project is about a futuristic style of human-computer interaction, where the user can visit almost everything simply by zooming in. It features a portable C++ toolkit API for developing such ZUIs, and it features the Eagle Mode application, which provides a virtual cosmos with plugin applications.

The most important one is the professional file manager with its rich, scriptable command set. It integrates file viewers for most of the common file types, as well as an audio and video player. Furthermore, the virtual cosmos contains a chess game, a netwalk game, a 3D minesweeper game, a multi-function clock, a stock watchlist, some fractals, and a Linux kernel configurator in form of a kernel patch.

Features

  • Autoplay function (e.g. slideshow of picture files, playing of multiple audio or video files).
  • Fast anti-aliased graphics
  • Virtually unlimited depth of zooming
  • Extensive mouse and keyboard control
  • Animated navigation with kinetic effects (inertia, friction, and magnetism)
  • Popup-zoomed control views
  • Editable bookmarks
  • In-place help texts
  • Working with multiple windows
