+CliFM is a Command Line Interface File Manager: all input and
+interaction is performed via commands. This is its main feature and
+strength.
+Unlike most terminal file managers out there, indeed, CliFM replaces
+the traditional TUI interface also known as curses or text-menu based
+interface by a command-line interface (CLI),1 also known as REPL.2
+
+If working with the command-line, your workflow is not affected at all,
+but just enriched with file management functionalities: automatic files
+listing, files selection, bookmarks, tags, directory jumper, directory
+and commands history, auto-cd and auto-open, bulk rename, TAB
+completion, autosuggestions, and a trash system, among other features.
+In this sense, CliFM is certainly a file manager, but also a shell
+extension.
