Description

The biggest feature I use on my mac with Forklift 3 is to copy a directory or directory content to the opposite pane; with the source pane the one that is selected.

I am learning fman and it would be great to use it going forward on my linux machines, so I can phase out the mac :)

Thanks for your consideration.
