“SpaceFM also comes with ‘find-as-you-type’, which lets you
quickly locate files in a folder, a feature that’s partially broken
in Nautilus since version 3. And if you want to find files on your
system, SpaceFM has that covered too: it comes with a built-in file
search tool which lets you search for files or find in files.“SpaceFM can even handle the desktop (draw the wallpaper and
display icons on the desktop). But before enabling this feature,
you’ll have to disable your current file manager for handling the
desktop – for example, if you’re using Nautilus 3, you can use
GNOME Tweak Tool: Desktop > Have file manager handle the desktop
to disable it. Then, in SpaceFM to to View > Preferences and on
the ‘Desktop’ tab, enable ‘Wallpaper’ and select a background
image. And finally, run SpaceFM using: ‘spacefm –desktop’.”
