3DShell

Purpose:

3DShell (3D-Shell) - is a multi-purpose file manager for the Nintendo 3DS that aims towards handling media files. Unlike FBI which specializes more in title management, 3DShell leans towards more of the file management features such as opening and managing various files types and includes the basic necessity of a standard file manager. This program's design elements are clearly inspired by CyanogenMod/LineageOS's built in file manager, and so all credits towards the design go to the CyanogenMod/LineageOS contributors.

Current features:

• Storage bar (at the very top, just beneath the current working directory).
• Precise battery percentage using mcu::hwc.
• Creating new folders and files.
• Renaming files/folders.
• File/folder deletion.
• Copy/Move files and folders.
• Multi-select items for delete/cut/copy (using Y button).
• FTP server (Press select or tap the ftp icon to toggle).

• Extract various archives such as ZIP, RAR, and 7Z.
• Searching for directories (allows you to quickly visit a directory by clicking the search icon on the top right (bottom screen).)
• File properties - lets you view info on current file/folder, such as size, modified time, parent folder etc.
• File timestamps.
• Browsing CTRNAND and copying data to/from CTRNAND.
• Dir list sorting (alphabetical - ascending, alphabetical - descending, size - largest to smallest, and size - smallest to largest).
