A plugin for the Ranger terminal file manager that adds a linemode prefixing file names with file icons/glyphs. It requires a NERDfont-patched terminal font and is configurable via environment variables.
Use cases
- show file icons in ranger file manager
- add devicons glyphs to ranger linemode
- make ranger display file type icons
- customize icon separator in ranger
- translate ranger directory icon names to other languages
When to choose
- you use Ranger as your terminal file manager and want visual file type icons
- your terminal already uses a NERDfont-patched font
- you want a lightweight, easily installed Ranger plugin
When to avoid
- you don't use Ranger as your file manager
- your terminal font lacks NERDfont glyphs
- you need a standalone file manager rather than a plugin
