Thanks Philip, I had used Krusader in the past and you encouraged me to give 
it another spin.  Icons for menus still don't show up and no matter what I 
select under Panels/Selection Mode, it still requires double click to open 
files or directories.  Plus it has no side panel for switching fast to other 
places, remote servers, et al.

I am probably missing some specific Plasma packages to control all this, which 
my selective installation of meta packages hasn't dragged in (yet).
