It embraces the best ideas of both similar +GUI-driven programs (Konqueror, Windows Explorer) as well as +text-based interfaces (Midnight Commander, List, Sweep). + +While the "twander" interface is graphical, all the major navigation, +selection, and execution commands can be entered from the keyboard, +not just the mouse. This means Power Users who are strong typists can +minimize dependency on the mouse and materially speed up their +interactions with the system. + +Moreover, unlike the other programs, "twander" does not have a +built-in set of commands (which typically cannot be changed). +Instead, "twander" supports a rich macro configuration language for +virtually limitless user-definition of commands. The configuration +language provides a simple mechanism for communicating the list of +items currently selected in the GUI to the user-defined commands. + +Each user is thus free to configure a command set unique and +appropriate to their needs. As with the navigation commands, +user-defined commands can be invoked with either the keyboard (a +single keystroke) or the mouse (a menu selection). + +WWW: http://www.tundraware.com/Software/twander/ |
