Yes there is. : "The Demos Commander, Copyright (C) 1989-1993 Serge Vakulenko" Works extremely well under X running on 1.1.5.1R and 2.0.5R and most of my users run it. For the console you may have to fiddle with termcap a bit. For a vt220 it has no problems at all It came as a package some time ago, around 1.1 I think. Here is the +DESC file from the package: ------------- DECO is a visual screen shell for the UNIX operating system. It is analogous with famous "Norton Commander". DECO can be used with any UNIX terminal, attached to UNIX operating system. The terminal must have direct cursor addressing mode and 80-character screen width. DECO uses all possibilities of your terminal - keypad and functional keys, colors, line drawing character set. User's Guide is available in PostScript format. DECO is not freeware. It is available free of charge for free unixes only, i.e. for FreeBSD, NetBSD, 386bsd and Linux. If you need DECO for commercial Unix platforms, please send e-mail to . It will cost you money, however. Regards, Serge Vakulenko -------------- I don't remember it on any of the archive sites I've visited lately so you may have to use archie. Failing that I could put it on a site of your choosing for you to collect. _-_|\ Terry Dwyer E-Mail: tdwyer@netbsd08.dn.itg.telecom.com.au / \ System Administrator Phone: +61 9 491 5161 Fax: +61 9 221 2631 *_.^\_/ Telecom Australia Telstra Corporation MIME capable mailer v Perth WA ( I do not speak for Telstra or Telecom )
