1. gentoo

   gentoo is a free file manager for Linux and other Unix-like computer systems created by Emil Brink. It is licensed under the GNU General Public License. gentoo is written in C using the GTK+ toolkit, and the "two-pane" concept. What makes gentoo stand out are its graphical configurability and its file typing and styling system. Using the latter, gentoo identifies the type of your files and then uses the style you've defined for the type to determine how to display it in listings. It is reminiscent of Total Commander or Norton Commander, and according to author himself, gentoo tries to capture the features, the look and feel of the legendary file manager from Amiga platform: Directory Opus. The package includes a set of approximately one-hundred unique handcrafted icons for many different types of files. Additionally, many users like it for its speed, as it is relatively lightweight.

Examples of Gentoo in a Sentence

1. Graham McGrath:

   While the decision may ruffle a few feathers, gender neutrality in humans has only recently become a widespread topic of conversation, however, it is completely natural for penguins to develop genderless identities as they grow into mature adults, what makes us really proud at the aquarium is the success of Sea Life London's Gentoo breeding program and the amazing job of same-sex penguins Rocky and Marama who took the chick under their wing and raised it as their own.

2. Heather Lynch:

   I think that if there was a permanent shift towards a snowy year climate, gentoo penguins would probably start breeding earlier, i think the gentoos are going to be just fine.

3. Heather Lynch:

   Gentoo penguins are big climate change winners in the Antarctic, they are perfectly happy to take advantage of a warming Antarctic. They don’t mind that it’s getting wetter. The flip side of that is that the Adélie and chinstrap populations have cratered in many areas and particularly chinstrap penguins. Their populations have declined in some areas by as much as 80%.
