quickcut

Quickcut is a lightweight and efficient file manager designed for Linux-based operating systems. It is part of the Xfce desktop environment suite and is known for its simplicity, speed, and minimal resource usage. Quickcut is primarily used for quick file operations such as opening, copying, moving, and deleting files, without requiring users to navigate through complex menus or interfaces.

The application features a small, persistent panel that remains visible at the bottom of the screen, allowing users to access frequently used directories and perform basic file actions. Quickcut supports drag-and-drop functionality, making it easy to transfer files between directories or applications. It also integrates with the Xfce desktop environment, providing seamless interaction with other components like Thunar, the default file manager for Xfce.

Quickcut is open-source software, released under the GNU General Public License (GPL). It is developed and maintained by the Xfce community, which focuses on creating lightweight and user-friendly tools for desktop environments. The application is available for download from the official Xfce repositories and can be installed on most Linux distributions that support Xfce.

Unlike traditional file managers, Quickcut does not include advanced features such as network browsing, archive handling, or detailed file properties. Instead, it prioritizes simplicity and efficiency, making it ideal for users who need quick access to files without unnecessary complexity. Quickcut is particularly useful for users who frequently work with files in specific directories and require fast, direct access to common operations.
