You might look at mc (Norton Commander clone)

Sorry for Debian package description - have here, at home, only Debian

$ aptitude show mc

Description: midnight commander - a powerful file manager
 GNU Midnight Commander is a text-mode full-screen file manager. It uses
a two
 panel interface and a subshell for command execution. It includes an
internal
 editor with syntax highlighting and an internal viewer with support for
binary
 files. Also included is Virtual Filesystem (VFS), that allows files on
remote
 systems (e.g. FTP, SSH, SMB servers) and files inside archives to be
 manipulated like real files.
