DESCRIPTION

16       Thunar is a fast and easy to use file manager for the Xfce Desktop
17       Environment. It has been designed from the ground up to be lighweight
18       with special focus on usability. Its user interface is clean and
19       intuitive, and does not include any confusing or useless options.
20

INVOCATION

22       Thunar takes a list of URIs for folders that should be opened in new
23       file manager windows or files that should be selected in new file
24       manager windows. The URIs may be specified as either file: or trash:
25       URIs, absolute paths or paths relative to the current directory from
26       which Thunar is being invoked. If no URIs are specified, the current
27       folder will be opened in a new file manager window.
28
29       When the --bulk-rename option is specified no file managers windows
30       will be opened, but instead the URIs will be passed to the bulk
31       renamer. The bulk renamer allows one to rename several files or folders
32       at once using different renamer modules.
33
34   Options
35       -?, --help
36           Print brief help and exit.
37
38       -V, --version
39           Print version information and exit.
40
41       -B, --bulk-rename
42           Open the URIs in a standalone window of the bulk renamer.
43
44       --daemon
45           Do not terminate the Thunar instance when the last window is
46           closed, but keep it running to speed up opening new windows later
47           on. This is the default when spawning Thunar as part of the default
48           Xfce session or when using D-Bus activation.
49
50       --display=DISPLAY
51           Use the specified X DISPLAY for the user interface.
52
53       -q, --quit
54           Terminate any Thunar instance running in the background (spawned
55           using the --daemon option). This command should be used whenever
56           Thunar is upgraded to a new version to ensure that no old instance
57           is reused.
