What is this?

FSViewer is a NeXT FileViewer lookalike for Window Maker. Viewing is currently supported via browser mode and list mode. It has been written in C using the WINGs library.

The tool was originally written by George Clernon (1998-99) and later maintained by Guido Scholz (2002-07).

This version is based on a source code repository I created around the same time to keep track of some fixes I added to the codebase over the years:

  • Adapt window bottom to more closely resemble NeXT FileViewer
  • Add support for showing available space on filesystem
  • Switch build system to cmake
  • Fix recurring crashes
  • Fix main window not showing title bar
  • Fix building on 64 bit systems
  • Fix building on FreeBSD
  • Fix building on OpenBSD
