In windows there is "Tera-copy" for copy,cut and delete like operations. Is there is any software in ubuntu. Because I am using ubuntu11.10 the default copy manager is hanging some times and very slow.

Helps you to integrate UltraCopier on the Nautilus/Nemo file browser.
After install: Select one option
Restart your computer(recommended)
Logout and login
Execute for:
Nemo: nemo -q (save your work first)
Nautilus: nautilus -q (save your work first)
To configure your keyboard shortcut
Rigth click on the desktop and then in Configure UltraCopier.
To install on ubuntu 14.04:
For Nemo:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lestcape/ultracopier-extensions
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nemo-ultracopier
For Nautilus:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lestcape/ultracopier-extensions
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nautilus-ultracopier
To remove:
sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:lestcape/ultracopier-extension
For Nemo:
sudo apt-get purge nemo-ultracopier
For Nautilus:
sudo apt-get purge nautilus-ultracopier
Report any problem:
One alternative could be Ultracopier

I don't know what do you mean with "default copy manager". What is your current "default copy manager"? – zetah Jan 06 '12 at 10:07

when i try to copy copy one folder to another folder ultracopier should do that operation but the unbuntu default copy program is running i want to change that to ultracopier – VENKI Jan 06 '12 at 10:13

I guess you expect Ultracopier to replace Nautilus copy command. I don't know how you can do that, sorry. Maybe you should ask separate question for that problem – zetah Jan 06 '12 at 10:38

1@zetah: they could create a Nautilus Action for that. – Takkat Jan 06 '12 at 12:19

@Takkat: Yes, that seems like best option available – zetah Jan 06 '12 at 12:29
You could try using the cp
command at the command line. It's much less likely to hang than the GNOME copy manager.

This might not exactly be gui, but pretty close to graphic user interface. I use mc (midnight commander) for cutting coping and pasting files. It works fine with ftp and ssh and provides a stable interface for a file manager if that tickles your fancy.
mc is available on ubuntu universe repository and can be installed through the command sudo apt-get install mc
.
