You always had the choice. When you used DOS, I used Slackware, from it first version ;) It was great! (security holes was as well great ;) hi hi ) |

I supposed it would be more correct to say it looks like an early DOS file manager. This is intentional. Why? Because it works, it works fast, and it gets the job done better than any other file manger I've used, and having worked with computers for thirty years I've seen more file managers than most. I've used Linux for ten years. Before that I used Windows, before that I used DOS, before that I use cp/m, before that I used Vortex II and a few other oddball antique operating systems. Today I use the Midnight Commander, a Norton Commander clone that looks and works like an early DOS file manager. Why? Because it is fast, capable, and gets the job done. It works for me, and is not dependent on a gui because a lot of the time I ssh into a box and need to do stuff - without a gui. Number two is a Windows file manager called the Total Commander, which is a gui version of the Norton Commander with significant enhancements. I use that a lot under linux with Wine. |

Thanks. Do you still have a CP/M machine? I wished I could have used a PDP. If you like MC, you should really try CNC. You will have a file manager that will run at the Speed of the Light. In the past, we coded it, because there was no good file manager at that time. It evolved with the years. Furthermore, I think that MC is still slow. MC does not allow to use offering sufficient settings. CNC was born. You may use 'j' and 'k' to fly over the files and documents. CNC really let you fly into your files/documents. If you use ssh, - like me, you could like the use of nframes-applications under your terminal. It behaves like a normal window manager but for your SSH / Terminal. (2shots: clidesk and stardesk for Linux). It is very old, but I still prefer it to Screen. Screen is nice, but those Frames look nicer and it allows you to switch better your running apps (under SSH). You can place you apps wherever you want, you can switch between them and bring them on the top easily with Function keys or mouse. |

fish://<address>:<port>/ sftp://<address>:<port>/ instead of SSH. Both work from Dolphin (I imagine at least sftp works in most new file managers) as long as the sshd daemon is running on the target server. |
