Thunar file manager - versatile and impressive (Linux On Desktop)

Linux On Desktop reviews the Thunar file manager. "Thunar is a file manager that is shipped by default with XFCE and is a integral part of XFCE desktop environment. Thunar is developed by Benedikt Meurer and has been named after the god Thor of Norse mythology. It is similar to Nautilus but uses much less resource as compared to Nautilus, and in fact one of the goals of creating Thunar was to create a file manager that was fast, clean and easy to use."

Hmm, nothing to contribute today but whining. So negative! Here goes:

This is a review? 1 - Here's how I used my package manager. 2 - Here's a screenshot. 3 - This is a menu. 4 - It uses plugins. End of review.

I know it's not easy to make good reviews, I've taken a stab at various things -- music, software, movies, books -- over the years. But it helps if you try.

This is why the Grumpy Editor series is so valuable. Corbet actually knows how to review things.

Why does the phrase ninety percent perspiration come to mind here? :-)
