+Ranger: A keeper, guardian, or soldier who ranges over a region to
+protect the area or enforce the law.
+
+This is the filemanager Chuck Norris the Texas Ranger would use if he
+had a computer with a unix-like operating system. (He doesn't trust
+computers though and prefers to do the calculations himself.)
+
+After all, as a professional ranger, he needs a broad overview of his
+territory, and the multi-column display of ranger provides just that,
+rather than restricting you to the current directory only. You can
+preview the content of the selected file or directory, copy or move
+files around with the VIM-like commands dd and yy, execute predefined
+applications when opening a file, etc...
+
+Everything is fully customizable and written in Python (2.6 and 3.1
+compatible) using curses for the text-based user interface.
