one),

and i think that both are necessary. the very first thing i install in a
new linux setup is midnight commander -- the height of achievement by
miguel de icaza, who in his declining career first invented gnome then
went to work for msft. (a nice guy, though -- i interviewed him in boston
when he was still doing ximian.) mc will get you out of all kinds of
trouble. and "sudo mc" in a terminal is maybe the most practical desktop
shortcut to a world of things.
and for regular file management from the desktop, nothing touches
konqueror.
