I used ranger and it's a solid improvement over it. If you are into tui apps you will love it, if you aren't it's ok. It also has plugin system, I use 2 plugins to compress files and get file size info. I love it.

I often use it to navigate into a directory, using it as a directory selector (auto cd on exit). An essential plugin to me is https://github.com/yazi-rs/plugins/tree/main/jump-to-char.yazi , to have a Vim like quick jump with f and a letter and n for next. The default f functionality to filter is now set to F, so I don't lose that by overriding.

Still need to handle archives too. I also want to write my own plugins someday if I get to use it more often.

It does handles all types of archives by default. Encrypted ones too.

How do you auto cd, I always wanted that but didn't brother to check docs for it. If I remember correctly it's by launching it as a shell script.

Yes, it's a simple shell function; needs to be a function in your bashrc, not a script, because cd doesn't work like that. Just copy the function from https://yazi-rs.github.io/docs/quick-start#shell-wrapper into your .bashrc:

EDIT: I forgot that Beehaw will replace the ampersand character to &. So instead copying my code you should copy it from the link above.

yy() {
    local tmp
    local cwd
    tmp="$(mktemp -t "yazi-cwd.XXXXXX")"
    yazi "${@}" --cwd-file="${tmp}"
    if cwd="$(cat -- "${tmp}")" && [ -n "${cwd}" ] && [ "${cwd}" != "${PWD}" ]; then
        builtin cd -- "${cwd}" || return
    fi
    rm -f -- "${tmp}"
}

I use yy instead single y.

Thank you so much for taking the time to post it. I will add this asap.
