Krusader is the best tool I've found for synchronizing directories when I move my backups between computers. Kdiff3 integration for comparing and merging plain text files and Filelight integration for showing graphical presentations of disk usage are great extensions to Krusader's powerful file management features. Krusader is an open source and cross-platform twin-panel file manager that aims for capabilities similar to Total Commander or Midnight Commander applications. It was originally created for the KDE.

Krusader v1.60.0 - The Twin-Panel File Manager for Linux

The file management zodiac goes 'round and 'round. We alternate between single-pane-window file managers like Finder, Explorer, Konqueror, or Nautillus and split-screen file managers like the subject of this article. What's amazing is that the history of Krusader goes back 20 years to the first version of Norton Commander, 1985. Norton Commander and XTree were the preeminent file managers for DOS, when people still willingly paid $25-$100 for useful software trinkets. Krusader is a direct descendant of Norton Commander.While trying to find the release date of Norton Commander, I stumbled across this impossibly complete resource containing, apparently, the annotated history of split-screen file managers.

Konqueror can use a twin-panel view, just choose Window / Split.Krusader v1.60.0 - The Twin-Panel File Manager for Linux

Does it have third panel with command like ?
That is what defines Twin-Panel filemanager: two panels and command line. Two panels by itself are not a big deal.

Actually, yes. You can split the window left/right, and then add a fullterminal emulator at the bottom. You can actually split the windows
arbitrarily top/bottom and left/right to have a grid of 4 file manager
windows and a command line at the bottom.

Four panels are useless. It's Ok to work with two panels: two possibilities (left active/right inactive vs left inactive/right active). With four panels there are 24 possibilities and navigation becomess a mess (mouse is no-go if you want speed).
Hmm.. Looks like it's time to install and check Konqueror once more. Terminal emulator is integrated with panels, right ? I.e.: if I change current directory in terminal emulation panels on top will be affected as well and vice versa - this is not just three unrelated windows, right ?
I'm pretty happy with MC, actually - but there are known problems and development is stalled..

Yes it's true that Konqueror can use a twin-panel view,but than it is still not a OFM like Krusader.

Konqueror in 'Midnight Commander Profile',is still not the same like the original Midnight Commander.
It has not the power of an (OFM) Orthodox File Manager
http://www.softpanorama.org/OFM/index.shtml
btw. Konqueror and Krusader are using both KDElibs, KIOslaves, ..
but the GUI is different because Krusader is an OFM.

There is a Krusader MAC OS X port :)krusader-1.40.fink.darwin-ppc.tar.bz2
http://krusader.sourceforge.net/down.php
But so long KDE and KDElibs are not '100% availabele' on MAC you
won't have the same power like on Linux/KDE.
Krusader is looking for a maintainer for this Krusader MAC OS X port btw.
http://krusader.sourceforge.net/handbook/help_krusader.html
If you want 'full Desktop integreation', you could try maybe:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utiliti..
http://www.likemac.ru/english/
shareware $22.57
or maybe:
http://www.mucommander.com/
Cross-platform file manager but it needs Java Runtime Environment (JRE).
Freeware, but without source code i think.
Maybe there are some other OFM file managers for MAC OS X?

I'm compiling the program right now - hopefully it works like DirectoryOpus 4.x on the Amiga, the nicest file manager I've used. (Version 5
became way too complicated).

Looks nice. I've been using emelfm for a while: http://emelfm.sourceforge.net/ but it looks like I'll have to give gentoo a closer look. Krusaders use of function keys looks pretty nice.
