To be candid, I've been remiss, and haven't dipped into DOS for several months now. Once in awhile I feel the urge, however, and enjoy that simple text screen - and working at the command line. :-) As for most "updates" and "update messages" - not in my pool! "New is not necessarily better" is a severe understatement, IMHO. :-) Oh, and as I said in the other group, regarding that cute last line of yours: "Never be led astray onto the path of virtue." Alas, I don't think you need to worry too much about that one these days, unfortunately :-) |

I actually switched from Xtree to Norton Commander clones some years back. I don't remember what it was that got me to do it... probably it was while I was running Linux full-time and found that UnixTree just wasn't the same... (I tried XtreeWin, but something about it rubbed me wrong. IIRC it was (at least in part) due to the fact that I couldn't change it to use standard Windows shortcut keys.) -- Man is the only animal that blushes -- or needs to. -- Mark Twain |
