The dual-pane file manager that also opens servers, containers and clouds. Try every Premium feature free for 30 days, then a one-time purchase – no subscription. SailCommander is the dual-pane file manager for everyone who wants to do more than move files – they want to understand what is happening on their system. Source on the left, target on the right, and in between servers, containers and clouds that behave like an ordinary folder. TWO PANES, ONE PACE • Two panels, unlimited tabs per side, each with its own history and filter • Copy (F5), move (F6), delete (F8) – by mouse or entirely from the keyboard • Live filter with wildcards and regular expressions • Unix permissions, owner and group right in the list • Transfers keep running in the background: percentage, speed and remaining time at a glance; on name conflicts you decide per file or once for all ONE WAY TO DO EVERYTHING A local file, a ZIP entry, a file on an SFTP server – and just as well inside a Docker or Podman container, a Proxmox LXC, an Incus/LXD guest, a Kubernetes pod, a systemd-nspawn machine or a FreeBSD jail. Seven container worlds, and every one of them takes the same handful of gestures. You navigate into archives like folders. Within a single server, SailCommander copies server-side – without the detour through your Mac. SERVERS, CONTAINERS AND CLOUDS • SSH/SFTP with connection pool, SSH agent, jump hosts and saving via sudo • FTP/FTPS, WebDAV (Nextcloud, Synology and friends), Amazon S3 • Mount SMB/NFS shares with a click, including Bonjour discovery on your local network • Google Drive via secure OAuth sign-in • Container file systems right in the panel: Docker, Podman, Proxmox LXC, Incus/LXD, Kubernetes pods, systemd-nspawn and FreeBSD jails • SSH tunnels and port forwarding for services behind firewalls Integrated Texteditor and Mermaid Editor - Edit and Save Remote in one Tool YOUR LINUX SERVERS AT A GLANCE One window for the daily check-up of your SSH hosts: services, file systems, updates, network, logins, schedules, certificates and hardware – plus a fleet overview across all favourites and a Markdown report for a ticket or a handover. Changes such as service restarts or package updates are deliberately narrow in scope, always confirmed, and always name the host. UNDERSTAND, DON'T JUST MOVE • Disk usage with treemap, ranking and history snapshots: where did the space go – and what grew last? • Process view as a live tree that recognises important system services and explains them in plain language • Event monitor for file system changes in real time • Snapshots as a principle: capture a state, compare it later SEARCH AND PREVIEW Advanced search combines metadata with AND/OR/NOT, nested as deeply as you like: EXIF and TIFF (ISO, aperture, lens), GPS with place lookup, IPTC, PDF, audio, video, HEIC depth maps, PSD colour mode, even FITS astrophotography. Quick view shows the file under the cursor instantly in the opposite panel – images, PDF, audio, video, rendered Markdown, JSON, XML, YAML and archives. Unknown formats fall back cleanly to text or hex. OVER 25 TOOLS, ONE APP Multi-rename with live preview, directory sync with a plan preview, duplicate and version finder, hex viewer for huge files, text editor (local, on a server, inside a container – with sudo if needed), Mermaid editor with 20 diagram types that writes the diagram code as you click, image editor, on-device photo analysis, file comparison, DMG editor, checksums, BSD flags, SSH key and certificate generator – plus a library of more than 1,800 admin commands, sorted by topic, to look up, try out and discover. SECURE BY DESIGN Fully sandboxed to Apple's rules – access only to what you grant. Server secrets live in the macOS keychain, separated by connection type. No tracking, no ads, no account required. FREE AND PREMIUM The dual-pane file manager stays free and ad-free forever – with no artificial limits. Premium adds networking, batch editing and analysis: free for 30 days, then a one-time purchase. No subscription, no automatic payment.
