File Manager
At a first glance, Konqueror looks just like a normal file manager:
- It displays files and directories using the "icon view" (three icon sizes) or the "tree view" (detailed view in which you can open sub-directories)
- It allows copying, moving and deleting, by direct drag and drop or by using copy, cut and paste.
- It provides properties on a file, to see and change its attributes in a dialog box.
One other interesting feature of Konqueror is that it provides automatic updating of directories - if a file is created in a directory which is currently being viewed, it is not necessary to refresh or reload the directory; Konqueror automatically shows the new content. The same situation occurs with files which have been deleted - they simply disappear, without any refreshing/reloading necessary.
