Re: [PLUG] mc graphics drawing characters - SOLVED

Mc doesn't really have commands. It's pretty much all F key driven.
All of the F et defs are right along the bottom when it's running.

Hey, I like mc too. It's just a "blast from the past" reminder of the Norton
Commander DOS days before Linux.
I typically just use the shell because I'm not familiar enough with the mc
commands anymore.
Does anybody remember a DOS windowing system from Quarterdeck called DESQview?
I remember when that was the hottest thing for about a year until the
Microsoft's new "Windows" product took over the market :-)
