How should I name my filebrowser?

Soo I recently finished my (basic) filebrowser.

Basic functions:
  • 3 navigation types:
    • Through the "search"-bar (enter the full path)
    • Through the back- and forthbuttons
    • By right-clicking a folder and clicking on "Open"
  • It is (in my opinion) easily modifyable:
    • Add, remove and edit entries in the right-click menu (more in the header of the file, which will be uploaded once I find a name :P/>)
  • It prints a "preview" of a file, if you left-click on it
    • Once you left-click, the code of the file will be printed on the left panel, which is a bit tighter than the right panel (which is the main filebrowser) (But if a line in the file is too long, it won't go to the next line, this is intended, as it would glitch in my experience)
  • Both panels are, of course, scrollable
Well now I only need a name and then I can publish it (like if anyone would really use it kek) :P/>

I'd appreciate help :)/>

fsExpose?
FScreen
FShow
FileSupport – f s …

It is (in my opinion) easily modifyable:
To add more to it? If it is a
(basic) filebrowser
then it would be cool if it was easy to add other filesystem interactions to it, like a nice framework for it and predefined functions. I'll try it out once you've come up with a good name :)/>.

As in the point under "It is (in my opinion) easily modifyable:" stated, you can (again, in my opinion) easily add more "buttons" to the menu when you press right-click.
You also can remove other ones and edit their functions / "what they do"

So basically you CAN let the program interact with other filesystem types, yeah

EDIT:
Ty for your suggestions :)/>

EDIT2:

OK, so I think I'll take fsExpose (I'll give you credit for that) and release it soonTM

(Currently I'm trying to get it to work flawless with cLinux (especially doorX, the searchbar leads to crashing my custom FS api in doorX), though I'm 100% sure it should work with (for example) other fs types, my fs api is just shitty :P/>)

EDIT3:
It wasn't a problem with my FS API, I was just dumb and misspelled something :P/>

Looks like I'll publish it in a couple of minutes…
