# The sysutils/nnn port

## nnn-5.2 – the missing terminal file browser for X

## Description

    nnn is probably the fastest and most resource-sensitive (with all its
    capabilities) file browser you have ever used. It's extremely flexible too -
    integrates with your DE and favourite GUI utilities, works with the desktop
    opener, supports bookmarks, has smart navigation shortcuts,
    navigate-as-you-type mode, disk usage analyzer mode, comprehensive file details
    and much more.

    Cool things you can do with nnn:

    - open any file in the default desktop application or a custom one
    - navigate-as-you-type (search-as-you-type enabled even on directory switch)
    - check disk usage with number of files in current directory tree
    - run desktop search utility (gnome-search-tool or catfish) in any directory
    - copy absolute file paths to clipboard, spawn a terminal and use the paths
    - navigate instantly using shortcuts like ~, -, & or handy bookmarks
    - use cd ..... at chdir prompt to go to a parent directory
    - detailed file stats, media info, list and extract archives
    - pin a directory you may need to revisit and jump to it anytime
    - lock the current terminal after a specified idle time
    - change directory on exit

    Flavor: nerd
        build with support for Nerd Fonts, requires a terminal emulator
        configured to use a font from one of the *-nerd-fonts packages,
        e.g. noto-nerd-fonts or others.
