The name Servant Salamander came from a brainstorming session between Petr Šolín and his friend Pavel Schreib. At the time, the best-known file managers were the aging Norton Commander and the increasingly popular Windows Commander. They wondered why a file manager should be called a commander at all: a good file manager serves its users rather than commands them. That idea led to the name Servant Salamander.

Salamander was our first major C++ project, and the code reflects both that learning process and the era in which it was built. It does not follow the [C++ Core Guidelines](https://isocpp.github.io/CppCoreGuidelines/CppCoreGuidelines), use smart pointers, rely on [RAII](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/raii), or use libraries such as the [STL](https://github.com/microsoft/STL) or [WIL](https://github.com/microsoft/wil). Most of these practices and libraries were still emerging when Salamander was created. Many comments are still written in Czech, but recent advances in AI-assisted translation make them much easier to improve incrementally. Salamander is a pure WinAPI application and does not use application frameworks such as MFC.

We would like to thank [Fine](https://www.finesoftware.eu/) for making the open-source release of Salamander possible.
