okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, because this is spacefm — the multi-panel tabbed file manager, from section 1 of the General Commands Manual. she's giving 👑 main character energy and honestly? she ate. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

spacefm — multi-panel tabbed file manager.

no cap, that's the whole pitch. panels. tabs. files. she manages them. 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

spacefm [OPTION]... [DIR | FILE | URL]...

so like, you throw some OPTIONs at her, then a pile of DIRs or FILEs or URLs, and she opens them. that's it, that's the vibe. ✨

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

okay here's the whole menu, don't skip any of it, every single one matters:

• -t, --new-tab — opens folders in a new tab of the last window. this is literally the default, she does this without you asking 🫶
• -r, --reuse-tab — opens the folder in the current tab of the last used window. no new tab, we're reusing, we're sustainable 💚
