# F.I.L.E.R.
### (File Investigation with Less Effort and Remembering)
----------------------------------------
FILER is an intuitive file explorer with modern input and ease-of-use.
## Installation
As FILER is a Python application, it is installed via ```pip```.
```
pip3 install cxfiler
```
To fully get the most use out of FILER, you should also add the following to your shell profile ( ```.bashrc```, ```.bash_profile```, ```.zshrc```, etc.):
```
filer() {
cxfiler
cd $(cat $HOME/.cxfilerexit)
}
```
This will create a shell function which will run FILER and then change directory to the directory FILER was pointed to when you quit.
