Hetman is a dual-panel file manager with focus on details. It has easy-to-use and convenient interface, each feature has been placed where you expect it to be and within easy reach, like a Swiss Army knife. It allows you to be really productive and concentrate on 'what' you want instead of 'how' to do it. It has a powerful built-in text editor with a lot of advanced features: incremental search, word wrap, and syntax highlight for almost any text format. The embedded console with scrollable output, color highlighting, command history/completion, etc. is expected to be one of the most powerful in the world. Quick file navigation, tabbed interface, bookmarks, ftp client, archiver and much more make Hetman the indispensable and full-featured tool for professionals.

Personally I don't care about disk size and memory usage (btw Hetman occupies about 30M of memory on my PC). Yahoo Messenger uses 20M for instance. Today memory is cheap and computers are blazing fast. Most of my friends have 512M of RAM or more.
What I like about Hetman is it's usability features. The best of them for me is quick file navigation. When I type cursor follows my choice navigating to file that contains search template. Moreover, all the time search template is shown at the point of the screen I look at (compare with Mozilla FireFox where search string is shown at the bottom!), relevant files and errors are highlighted. Simply love it!
Tabs are welcome too. Everything opens in separate tabs - editors, console, file panels.
For any file manager I use editor with syntax highlight is a must. I am a developer and from time to time I have to view or edit files outside of my favorite IDE. I like built-in Hetman's text editor - it has syntax and braces highlight for all the languages I use (Java, C++, PHP, XML, SQL).
Another important point is console integration. I do not loose output any more like in FAR or Total Commander - separate tab opens and I can read all the program's output.
Hope that Linux version will be available soon. I use Linux from time to time and I do not know of any convenient file manager there (don't tell me about MC :) ).
One more cool thing - I'm using Hetman for more than two months and have not encountered any critial problem. Keep in mind that I'm talking about beta version not release. The guys are pretty quick developing new features. They have a bugtracker and a forum where I can post my bugs and discuss any ideas directly with developers.
Just my $0.02. -

When I installed the filesize was 70MB+
When I ran it was using 55MB of memory
Only reason I'm giving it 2 is because the GUI is slick.
Very very poor program -

boys do not argue about it all of them are a copy of norton commander
it seems promising it uses jave therefore it seems that can be easily ported to linux
but there is a problem it does not work
with a language that is not as common as english
it seems to give instructions for a charset.jar file which can not be downloaded on itself
being a dialup user is not possible to donwload the java sdk or anything similar.
therefore 3
is there a solution? -
