Sequence FM 5.0 arrives. This filemanager is made with Python3 and QT5. It intends to be a simple and lightweight.

Currently functioning features include:

Terminal command support in addressbar: You can, for example, type firefox and it will start after you press Enter and then press Control from your keyboard to execute.
General addressbar funtionalities: Showing current location and navigating to current location via addressbar.
Open file with application functionality.
Make a new text file functionality.
Make a new folder functionality.
Object renaming is supported.
Open archive, compress an object or extract an archive is supported via file-roller integration.
Right-click menu: Almost all the above functionalities have been placed inside the right-click menu of Sequence FM.
Preliminary shortkey support: Delete button of a keyboard will launch object deleting functionalities. Control button will execute terminal command from addressbar – after first validated with Enter keypress.

Error handling inside Sequence FM has been improved – to avoid accidental crashing-

To use Sequence FM you should have, at least, these installed (Debian base as an example):

sudo apt-get install python-pyqt5 python python3 file-roller

Default locations: You can place Sequence FM in any location. I recommend /usr/share/sfm.py

Executing:

If needed make python files executable: chmod +x filename.py

Run with: python filename_location.py

About delete, copy and moving functionalities.

I decided to keep this filemanager as unix like as possible. As I prefer terminal commands, I left out move,copy or removal commands. I believe those are best served via terminal client. See here for more: https://www.techtimejourney.net/essential-terminal-tricks-you-should-know/
