Sunflower: Improved way of data transfer - Ubuntu

Sunflower: File Manager

The usual cast of difference between Windows & Linux users is that the file manager of Window is always superior than any of the Linux based managers. Hence the data transfer is a major problem in Linux as it carries much time as compared Explorer of Window. But here we found an alternative to keep our good work in line.

Sunflower is a highly customizable Linux file manager that supports dual panes and plug-ins. It can be integrated easily in Gnome-based desktops. This amazing file manager has been updated to version 0.1a-51 which brings these new changes:

  • Performance improvements for the copy function (the file manager will now check available space before starting the copy operation)
  • Fixed a bug that causes entries to be duplicated in the mount manager
  • Various bugfixes
To install Sunflower in Ubuntu 12.10/12.04 and Linux Mint 14/13 or older, open the terminal & run :

  • sudo add-apt-repository ppa:atareao/sunflower 
  • sudo apt-get update 
  • sudo apt-get install  sunflower
