I write a lot of custom software in C using X11/Motif widgets. My file manager is still incomplete but it has some cool features. Clicking file names brings up the rename dialog. Long file names get trimmed with an arrow indicator and the full name is displayed in a tooltip on mouse hover. It does multi-threaded thumbnailing for a few common image formats like PNG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, PSD and XBM/XPM. It can function as a selection or save dialog for other apps by printing path strings to stdout. And I'm experimenting with MacOS-style *.app bundles for an app launcher mode. They can contain a local executable or full system path along with an icon. Bundles are just folders that will be supported by drag and drop when it gets added.
