Master Commander is a file manager, which differs from the other alternatives to standard windows file manager.

Its difference in many aspects and the presence of some tools is the realisation of my needs (I missed this in other programs).

A convenient dual-panel view and additional features allow you to perform a series of shorter file operations.

Features:

* files are displayed in two independent panels as a list or a tree (as well as any combination of them)
* tabbed interface
* optional tree view for each panel
* built in archive handling: ZIP, TAR, GZIP, TGZ, BZIP2, RAR (integrated view, but compression needs an external compressor WinRAR), 7ZIP (compression and decompression needs an external compressor 7-ZIP)
* a text editor with syntax highlighting for many programming languages
* a binary hex editor allows you to modify the files of any size
* supports the fundamental operations on files and folders: copy, move, delete, rename
* operations are executed in the background which means that when performing any function available in the program you can use other (or the same) function (for example: when you copy or compress files, you can browse or search for files)
* allows you to encrypt and decrypt files using algorithms: BASE64, DES, TripleDES, AES (128 i 256 bit)
* multi rename tool
* file searching (with text searching inside)
* file filters for display
* tool windows are not modal (for example, when searching for files, you can open second search window, both operations can be performed simultaneously)
* calculation of folder size
* modification of file date and attributes
* create and verify file checksums (CRC, MD5)
* file splitting and merging
* a tool for comparing and analyzing the differences in the contents of files of any size (binary and textual)
* a list of favorite folders
* a simple command line
* a tool to synchronize folders
* a tool to download files from the Web
* built in FTP client
* a tool for code page conversion files
* electronic signature file (signing and verifying)
* a tool for display processes and dependent modules with the possibility of the location of the executable program and stop its operation
* a tool for create an ISO image from any specified group of folders and files
* a tools for share files and folders on the local network
