cd /usr/local
git clone https://github.com/0l1v3rr/cli-file-manager.git
cd cli-file-manager
# The build may take a couple of tries
make build
export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/cli-file-manager/bin"
Now try to execute the command cfm
.
In the first argument, you can give the path where you want it to open. (Not necessary)
For example: cfm /home/user/Desktop
Note: The cfm
command will only live until you close the terminal. To resolve this issue, follow these few steps:
nano ~/.profile
Now scroll to the bottom and paste this:
export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/cli-file-manager/bin"
Save the changes and reboot.
There's an update and do you want to use it?
Go to your cli-file-manager folder. Open a terminal and type this command:
make update
