DEVELOPMENT ON THIS REPO HAS STOPPED. FOR THE NEW VERSION (USING NODE.JS) SEE https://github.com/Scimonster/localbrowse
localBrowse is a joint file manager and simple editor, all to be run from a web browser. It requires a local server (localhost), usually done with XAMPP or something like that. It is based on the Linux filesystem, and as such, will probably fail miserably elsewhere.
localBrowse is subject to some restrictions that a desktop file browser is not, however. This is mainly because the server scripts usually run as "nobody".
localBrowse can currently list the files in a directory (including marking up hidden files and files that it does not have permission to), and edit simple text files.
