ranger
ranger is a console file manager with VI key bindings.
It provides a minimalistic and nice curses interface with a view on the directory hierarchy. It ships with rifle, a file launcher that is good at automatically finding out which program to use for what file type.News
Version 1.9.4 released
Version 1.9.4 is out, fixing a crash in Python 3.13+ due to the deprecated dependency “imghdr” in the Python standard library.
Moving to Libera.Chat
On May 19, Freenode staff lost their control of the network. This has been developing for a while and staffers set up Libera.Chat in case it happened. Foss revolves around people volunteering their time, as did the Freenode network. We have decided to move the #ranger channel because we believe the volunteer staffers have our best interests at heart.
The king is dead, long live the king!

New design
I changed the website design to resemble the interface of ranger :)
Relocated website
The URL for the ranger website has changed from http://ranger.nongnu.org to https://ranger.github.io. An automatic redirect has been set up. Reasons for the move are:
- nongnu.org forces the use of CVS to update the website
- With GitHub’s pull requests, everybody can contribute more easily to the website
- GitHub offers HTTPS
