.SH "USAGE"
.B krusader [Qt-options] [KDE-options] [options]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
Krusader is an advanced twin panel (commander style)
file manager for KDE and other desktops in the *nix world,
similar to Midnight or Total Commander.
It provides all the file management features you could possibly want.
Plus: extensive archive handling,
mounted filesystem support, FTP, advanced search module,
viewer/editor, directory synchronisation, file content comparisons,
powerful batch renaming and much much more.
It supports the following archive formats: ace, arj, bzip2, deb, 
gzip, iso, lha, rar, rpm, tar, zip and 7-zip
and can handle other KIOSlaves such as smb:// or fish://
It is (almost) completely customizable, very user friendly,
fast and looks great on your desktop! :-)
You should give it a try.
