On Saturday, January 7th spaceman was heard saying...
 Sp> I am trying to create a custom file browse view

Sweeeet! I know a number of people are put off by the default enig file browser, so you may get real popular :D

Twas Saturday, January 7th when spaceman said...
 Sp> #	  filename		    description			  ul-date  	  ul-by
 Sp> 1     filename.zip		whateverandstuff	 12-12-2002   spaceman

I think what you'd want is a ListView with a custom 'itemFormat' / 'focusedItemFormat'. What that does is allow you to control the format of the list (array) of objects and reference their properties in the xxxxFormat, e.g.
"|04{fileName:<20} {byteSize}" could expand to show the filename and byte size.

There are examples of this all over the default theme/system.

For the detail, you can treat it similar to how the default browser shows the file description. It's just a MultiLineTextView. 

There are some APIs you can find in the default browser to fetch the listings themselves.

Hope that helps! I'm happy to help you if you get stuck :)
