And i hate lfCan I make it use pypy or something? I just found out main implementation of python is slow because they let modules modify its internals and pypy is supposed to be 10-50x faster

>>108465776because i'm not a 70 yo baby duck winbabby
vibeported version of ranger to a fast language will be one of the only ai slop projects I'll be happy to adopt
>>108465794i liek itWhat about nnn?
>>108465803Just use yazi
>>108465742>reportedand deported
>>108465811if i wanted to have the functionality of mv cp and rm i'd use those
Literally no use case for a TUI file manager
>>108465848other than it being 10x faster to usei'm not attached to TUI i'd much rather emacs and dired not be total dogshit
Yazi is better. I found it to be more intuitive than others (lf, nnn, etc) as a former ranger user
>>108465896would be faster to write my own FM instead of fucking around with all the emoji and keybindings of yazi
>>108465738usepopd andpushd
>>108465738>pypy is supposed to be 10-50x fasterit isn't really. maybe it's faster for long lived processes, but for quick startup and generic scripts, it's objectively worse.
>>108465738>this shit is so fucking slowYou didn't specify what "shit" is so slow. From the picture, it may be that you are clumsily trying to refer to the Ranger file manager yet in a curious way that avoids mentioning the name of the Ranger file manager. Curious.The Ranger file manager is written in Python, an interpreted language with heavy library nesting.Did you know that compiled languages are faster than interpreted languages? Sometimes by a factor as high as twenty?I suppose someone who knows more than you, if motivated, could rewrite Ranger in C, which is a compiled language and, aside from glibc and possibly ncurses, would have no library bloat.Note: mc is another file manager that runs in the terminal. It's very old, so very stable. Can you guess what language it was written in?
>>108465814>>108465803Yazi is great but you'll need to configure it first.It's not that great out of the box.
GNUnix users are so dumb..> blaming high-level language runtime for speed (where it doesnt matter) while using antique design concepts> blaming advanced design concepts as antiqueyou really dont know what youre doing
TUI fm's seem unnecessary, to me, compared to fzf. There's so much extra stuff in something like Ranger, advanced features that aren't applicable outside of itself. Waste of learned information in my opinion, when you could just provide a convenient front-end for your normal file management tasks with fzf and your shell's configuration files.https://codeberg.org/problems_available/zsh_confighttps://codeberg.org/problems_available/scripts
>>108466559Though, it's kind of clunky, you have to be somewhat imaginative.For example,"cp fff ffd"would open up fzf to allow you to select files to be copied into the directory selected by ffd.
>>108466211you're very pissy but i have 0 clue what over
>>108465952setopt autocdsetopt autopushdalias popd=pop
>>108465939False
either lf or yazi. but yazi's image previewer is shit. nnn need tmux/2nd terminal/tabbed
>>108465860It's literally not faster you absolute retard.
>>108465814>>108465896>>108465939>yazi
>>108465738Retvrn to emacs. It's the Favstian choive.
>>108465738I made my own with ncurses in C and its instant, not sure how they fucked up ranger that bad but i do like it minus the speed
i never thought such stupid people exist in tech. chaoticly repeating antique technologies and then in many years after trying to present a "faster" version.. its the year 2026 dude, it doesnt make sense anymore. probably since the times of retarded mc that was a shell, and yours, its not even a shell.> i wrote my thing in assembler its really fast!oh my, youre so so retarded.. you cannot even press 2 keys simulateneously in yer retarded GNUnix terminal. whats left for you is to install indian terminal with specs borrowed from retarded perl-dude.
I have a hard time believing that someone considers ranger to be slow.It might be something else about your system?I went to a dense dir (9856 files, 4.26G sum) and navigating through the files, I'm the slowest part of the equation, not the program.
>>108469527>>108469647i want to fucking write my own emacs that's not dogshit and has good file manager but that isn't the day>>108469870my screenshot dir has 10k files and i wait 1.5s for it in lf and like 3-4 in rangeri also have one dir with 60k files which is actually somewhat similari also see terminal redraw in real time when changing between dirs, pypy interestingly doesnt have this problem but it also doesnt have colors for some reason i havent looked into it
>>108465860>>108465836>>108465794such weird brown troon angerdisgusting.
>>108471488i use ranger for its features not because it runs of my 40 year old DOS shitbox
>>108465814>yiddish nazi
>>108471493wdym features? How do you use it in scripts?
>>108471582>using any interface>in fucking scriptsholy fuck blow your head off what the fuck are you doing retard
>>108472167What features does ranger have that are only useful in ranger interactive mode that would justify using ranger at all vs raw cli or >>108466559?If it had such useful features to justify it's usage, I would presume that it would be because you could somehow use it to automate something that you otherwise couldn't? How do you use ranger for shell completions and file management at the same time?
>>108465738>unc thinks he's a hacker
>>108472260image previews visual mode + random sort so i can use it as music playermarks but probably everything does have thatgood bindings complex filtersbuilt in atool and chmod interface>ummmm actually but others have half of that too or you can spend 6 hours changing the keybindings t have the same thing
>>108472288Whenever I need it to do something new I just add the keybind in like a minute.I have image preview, video previews, metadata, the same syntax highlight as vim, because I'm using vim to preview files, I have a different set of scripts for fzf for a music player, but I typically just use i3 keybinds and an i3blocks widget to show me mpd's status. It's just keybinds in my shell. Press enter and it sends the selections to stdout, or places them onto the command line, depending on the function called. It directly augments the cli, rather than working around it.

>>108472334why not vifm
>>108472379I don't remember. I messed with it for a bit and ran into something I couldn't do, that I could do with fzf. No idea what that was.
>>108472379I think it was previewing files w/ nvimpager. Total dealbreaker if I can't use that, because treesitter.

>>108472445ikr. It's like Trump salivating over Cuba. It's all yours, you can do whatever you want with it.
>>108465848Managing images is a use case since ranger can show previews of them. Otherwise I agree. Cd, mv, cp, etc. are good enough.
>>108472535maybe you should learn the docs if you dont know how to use it

>>108472583btw im trans not sure if that matters
>>108472577I read that one from time to time just to figure out what people even use it for.>>108472583Pretty much. It's command line training wheels that got shilled to new users. There are a few circumstances where a tui interface is more expedient than using the command-line, but they are sparse enough that you have to make a deliberate effort to keep them in mind when using the command line like an adult.
