<para>The OFM file manager concept contains
9
<link linkend="features">many features</link> that make them
10
powerful enough to belong among the best file managers today.
11
The interface is simple: left panel, right panel and a command
12
line below. Because of interaction between these three items
13
the file managing will become more efficient.</para>

"Right" panel, or a more important logical distinction, the

*Active* panel and the *Inactive* panel. The active panel is

choose a command from the

<guilabel>Menu-Bar</guilabel> or
295
<guilabel>Toolbar</guilabel> the command will act upon the
296
selected files/directories in the active panel. You can switch
297
between panels using the 	 key or by clicking on
299
<guilabel>Information or Totals labels</guilabel>, or by
300
selecting any file in a panel with the mouse. As always,

</userinput> command. The terminal emulator will follow the
690
active panel directory. When you drag a file from the

<interface>"List Panel"</interface>, you will get to choose
693
<command>cd</command>,
694
<command>mv</command> and
