"gentoo"

By Juergen Haas, About.com

Definition: gentoo: A fully GUI configurable X file manager using GTK+ gentoo is a file manager for X11, written from scratch in pure C. It utilises the GTK+ toolkit for its interface. A goal with gentoo is to let the user do all configuration from within the program itself; there should be no need to hand-edit configuration files and restart the program in order to customize it. gentoo features a fairly complex and powerful file identification system, coupled to a object-oriented style system, which together give you a lot of control over how files of different types are displayed and acted upon.
