Preferences

Open Preferences with Cmd+, (or via the Command Palette). Settings are organized into four tabs and persist across sessions.

General

Setting Options Default
Show Hidden Files on / off off
Calculate Directory Sizes on / off off
Play Startup Sound on / off on
Quick Filter on Keystroke on / off on
Image Tooltips on Hover on / off on
Confirm Before Overwrite Ask / Always overwrite / Never overwrite Ask
External Editor path to editor binary (empty — uses built-in)
Diagnostic Log Files open log directory —

Quick Filter — when enabled, typing any letter in a file panel immediately filters the listing. Disable to use keyboard shortcuts that start with letter keys.

Confirm Before Overwrite — controls what happens when a copy or move would overwrite existing files:

  • Ask — show a conflict dialog (default)
  • Always overwrite — overwrite without asking
  • Never overwrite — skip conflicting files silently

Appearance

Setting Options Default
Theme Dark / Light follows OS
Default View Mode List / Icon / Column List
Date Format ISO / EU / US / Relative ISO
Row Height Compact / Normal / Comfortable Normal
Icon Size Small / Medium / Large Medium

Date Format examples:

  • ISO — 2026-03-04 14:30
  • EU — 04.03.2026 14:30
  • US — 03/04/2026 2:30 PM
  • Relative — 5m ago, 3h ago, 2d ago

Row Height affects both list and column views. Compact is useful for seeing more files at once; Comfortable gives more breathing room.

Network

S3

Setting Options Default
Concurrent Transfers 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 3
Bandwidth Limit Unlimited / 1–100 MB/s Unlimited
Multipart Upload Threshold 8 / 16 / 32 / 64 MB 8 MB
Multipart Part Size 8 / 16 / 32 / 64 MB 8 MB
Concurrent Parts 2 / 4 / 8 / 12 4
Secure Temp File Cleanup on / off off

Multipart settings control how large files are uploaded to S3. Files larger than the threshold are split into parts of the configured size and uploaded with the specified concurrency. Higher concurrency can improve throughput on fast connections.

SFTP

Setting Options Default
Inactivity Timeout 5 / 10 / 30 / 60 min 5 min
Keepalive Interval 15 / 30 / 60 / 120 s 30 s
Operation Timeout 30 / 60 / 120 / 300 s 60 s

SFTP timeout settings apply to new connections only — changing them does not affect already-open sessions.

  • Inactivity Timeout — disconnect after this period of no activity
  • Keepalive Interval — send keepalive packets at this interval to prevent the server from dropping idle connections
  • Operation Timeout — maximum time to wait for a single SFTP operation (download, upload, listing, etc.)

Terminal

Setting Options Default
Font Size 10–18 px 13 px
Scrollback Lines 1,000 / 5,000 / 10,000 / 50,000 5,000
Custom Shell Path path to shell binary (empty — auto-detect)

Font Size changes take effect immediately in all open terminals.

Scrollback Lines and Custom Shell Path apply to new terminal tabs only.

When the shell path is empty, Furman uses $SHELL on macOS/Linux, or the platform default if unset.
