# thunar

[thunar][thunar] is a GTK file manager.

## Use Cases

thunar can be used to:

- Have a graphical interface for browsing files on a computer
- Not worry about the cascading effect of nautilus
- Have thumbnails update instantly, no refresh needed most of the time

You should not use thunar if:

- You want to search in your file browser (nautilus is better for this)

meta: Add thunar I used thunar for a while and it was a great experience with few exceptions, however I will likely remove it in favor of a more command line-based experience. Using thunar was a valuable learning exercise and it helped me understand more about what file browsers actually do, and I realized that I can replicate this experience fairly trivially while giving me the benefits of my existing configuration. 2022-10-25 05:44:33 +02:00			`# thunar`
