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  inter-
     nal operations while any external program can also be used for operating on
     the selected items.
     You can easily add actions to filetypes or buttons with the builtin config-
     uration program.
     For  details  read  the documentation available at the Worker homepage (see
     below).
