Midnight Commander, aka mc, is the real swiss army knife, and its always nice and sharp, so while I may rail about konquerer, at the end of the day its a shrug cuz I already have a tool that does what I want. People are too darned enamored with eye candy, and that is another animal entirely from usefulness. Krusader is 'purty' I'll give it that, but where is the usefulness? 90% is missing. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
