@mikekazakov Thank you so much for developing and sharing such a powerful tool!
It's the very best file manager for Mac!

Yes, thanks @mikekazakov for the continous development and good decision to make it open source now. I have been happily paying and using it for 3 years now after extensive market research and it is the best on MacOS!
Keep up the good work and maybe you even get some more support and visibility now!

I've recently found this application. It's really perfect for developers. Thanks for making it free and open source.

i love the command line directly in sync with the GUI navigation, anything that the GUI is not capable / not suitable of, the command line come into direct compliment immediately.

for e.g. i want my current full path, i will just do pwd. or i want to extract the list of file with specific keyword, i will just ls | grep abc

Hope making it free won't make you less passionate about the product long term. I'm a paid customer and I thank you for making it available for more people.

You are welcome! I hope that as well; my interest in developing Nimble Commander isn't going anywhere. Though what has changed after fully opening is that a default response to feature requests became "pull requests are welcome".
