Why arent there any references to Norton Commander, the application that Midnight Commander stems from? I use MC because i have used NC since its first version on DOS long ago. I think it would be fair to atleast reference Nortons application since that in its time was groundbreaking. When i found MC in linux i akmost jumped of joy since i could do everything without any hassle whatsoever since MC is almost identical to NC.
Here's a cut from the first page of README: Features -------- GNU Midnight Commander was conceived as a free clone of John Socha's Norton Commander (TM). It also takes the best from more recent software with similar interfaces. GNU Midnight Commander comes with mouse support on xterm and optionally on the Linux console. -- //Björnen, bjorn @ bjornen . nu | http://bjornen.nu | |_).._. _ _ _ _ \\ ( GPG: 3F1E41C8 5229D5F6 5D8E0149 659CDF06 8320510D | |_)|(_)| | )(-| ) ) \\ [I'm subscribed; No CC:s on list-replies please] | / //
