Far Manager is an application for managing files and archives in Windows operating systems. Far Manager works in text mode and provides a simple and intuitive interface for performing actions.

Key Features Include:

• Viewing files and directories; editing, copying and renaming files; and many other actions.
• Far Manager's functionality is greatly extended by external DLL modules — plugins, which are made possible by a special set of interfaces:the Plugins API. Archive support, FTP client, temporary panel and network browser are all implemented as plugins included in the standard distribution of Far.

Far Manager has a multi-language, easily configurable interface. Far Manager's File system navigation is made easier through the use of colour highlighting and sort groups.
