Ext2: A look at Midnight Commander Aug 26, 1999, 14 :42 UTC (4 Talkback[s]) (5596 reads) (Other stories by Patrick Lambert)
"The GNU Midnight Commander is a directory browser/file manager for Unix and
Linux systems. It was created by Miguel de Icaza and many others. One small
note I'd like to make is that MC is a very good example of how world wide the
open source movement is. Main developers for MC come from Mexico, the USA,
Germany, Taïwan, Italy, Spain, and many other countries."
"In this short article I just want to introduce you to this fabulous program. It is a
console program, but it has been made X aware, and the mouse will be available
if you run MC in an Xterm inside of X. In the next sections I will show you the
visual aspect of the program, the various commands in the file manager, the text
editor, text viewer and the Virtual FS feature. If you don't have MC installed, you
can get it from your Linux CD-ROM. If you do, launch it with the 'mc' command."
