About MaxCommander
Manage your files the way you always do, using two panels and the keyboard (and sometimes the mouse). Introducing the MaxCommander. MaxCommander is all you need to manage files on your local drives and remote file servers. The app supports several operations. You can browse and manage the content of an archive as if it was a folder on a local drive. You can browse, create, modify, and unpack all types of archives. You can browse, create, and unpack tar.gz, tar.Z, tar.bz2, tar.xz, tgz, taz, tbz2, txz, as well as gz, bz2, xz, and Z. If you have an archive file created on an operating system that does not use Unicode you can open it in MaxCommander and select the right characters encoding for file names (available for arj, lha/lzh, zip, rar, and tar archives). MaxCommander can connect to file servers and you can manage remote files and folders on such servers. For older FTP, FTPS, FTPES, and SFTP servers that do not support UTF8 you can select character encoding to use.
