NAME
       worker -	file manager for the X Window System

SYNOPSIS
       worker [options]
       worker [directory1[ directory2]]

DESCRIPTION
       worker  is  a  graphical	file manager for the X Window System.  It uses
       the classical two-panel view of the files and directories.  It has many
       internal	operations while any external program can also be used for op-
       erating on the selected items.
       You can easily add actions to filetypes or  buttons  with  the  builtin
       configuration program.
       For  details  read  the	documentation available	at the Worker homepage
       (see below).
