Re: Norton Commander for Linux?
Sounds like midnight commander: here's a link to the description
http://www.debian.org/Packages/stable/utils/mc.html
I remeber a MC-based shell once upon a time, but haven't heard anything
about it in years. For X, I don't know if anybody's make a tcl/tk
interface for it, but it should run fine in an xterm. Xservers are based
on video hardware, not mainboard hardware, so any should do--matter of
fact you should have better performance with SVGA than I do (my chipset
needs linear addressing to do more than 256 colors, and I have RAM
addressed in that spot--linear addressing only works with less than 16M of
RAM)

When you are having a bad day, and it seems like everybody is trying to
tick you off, remember that it takes 42 muscles to produce a frown, but
only 4 muscles to work the trigger of a good sniper rifle.
