TealFiler File Manager

Overview

TealFiler is a desktop file manager for Linux, which works like Windows Explorer on Windows or Filer on a Mac (Figure 1). While there are other file managers available for Linux, TealFiler is designed with minimal dependencies in mind. It is also written in Python, making it easy to adapt and modify. TealFiler was originally written by Prof. Bill Griffin-Dubson as part of his master's degree.

As it is currently implemented, TealFiler is already a capable local file manager for Linux. However, there are a number of features that still need to be implemented. Each of these features is effectively a separate project, since TealFiler is designed to have minimal dependencies and thus does not use a file system abstraction layer like GVFS or KIO.
