I do not think "we" need emelfm2. It is notoriously quirky and running it on even smaller screen will not make it better. If I understand correctly, nobody here can make himself use Midnight Commander? If that is the case, "we" may just need a new file manager instead. May I suggest porting ROX Filer again, this time porting it well? Here is the homepage:

May not help alot. But if all you want to do is look around at all the files on your device. You can open the web browser and type "file:" in the address bar. The web browser seems to show lots more stuff than the File browser.

Ok - here is another simple file manager question.
How do I copy files (from within MyDocs) to the sd card using the file manager?
Maybe I'm missing something, I hoped the file manager would have showed the card after I inserted it. Or do I need to reboot before it shows up? Or does it not show up at all!?
Thanks,
Spann

I optified the emelfm2 package available on qole's site (0.5.0-rev29) and tweaked the config file for a better gui. The package was somewhat too large so couldn't be attached to the post; it's here.
(I uploaded it on my site with maemoftp which quite luckily works under Maemo5 too
. Should someone like an optified version, lacking only some icons which likely came from the maemo4 system, it's here.)

I really like the way I use Nautilus in Ubunto... I just open a "sudo nautilus" and then I can edit config files with gedit.. I am visual/artistisc person and just finds it very hard to use terminal and think in those terms.. I would like to be able to but the filemanager in sudo mode and see and edit all files as I do in Ubuntu

There may be better alternatives than emelFM2 that could be ported to Maemo -- my knowledge is very limited in that regard. But I know that it serves a purpose for me not served by command line nor by SSH, and that, unlike other potential Linux file managers, emelFM2 has been ported to Maemo.
