  brew install superfile
  (ok)
  superfile
  (not found)
  find superfile
  (not sound)
  cd /usr/local/Cellar/superfile/1.1.2/bin
  ls
  spf

This is mentioned in the tutorial but it's probably worth mentioning in the install section to save people 5-10 minutes of confusion. Once I found the filename I loved it.

Or even provide superfile as an alias which prints a message saying "you can also call it as spf", once a day. People don't read install sections.

The problem is that it's not mentioned in the installation instructions, only in the tutorial.

ok i'm a bit late to this post but can you explain why you use a terminal file manager UI? I've never found myself using these except very early in my computing career before I knew the DOS copy commands to use.

I feel the same way. Bash is my file manager.
