The MouseLess Commander is a directory browsing tool with a very close
look and feel to John Socha's Norton Commander for DOS. The program
runs on Linux, SunOS and Ultrix systems.

No matter what the name of the program is, the MouseLess Commander
has mouse support (yes, it does have mouse support) on the Linux
console.

In order to take advantage of the mouse support feature, you will need
the GPM server running on your Linux box. If you run selection, you
will have to replace it with GPM.

I have uploaded the MouseLess Commander 0.14 to sunsite.unc.edu in the
directory /pub/Linux/Incoming as the file mc-0.14.tar.gz and will be
moved sometime to /pub/Linux/utils/file/managers.

The GPM Mouse Server is available in iride.unipv.it in the directory
/pub/gpm.

This are the changes from the last announcement (0.10):

Version 0.14

- Now can handle directories with an unlimited number of files.
- New link and symlink commands (C-x l, C-x s)
- New insert tagged files or selection command (C-x t)

Version 0.13

- Behave more like the Norton Commander
- Added menu file edit
- If there is no permission to load a directory, now it loads a dummy
directory.
- When a panel is re-sorted, keep the selected file selected.
- forward_word and backward_word command on the input line now skip
over letters and numbers.
- Fixed backward scrolling in the internal viewer.
- The internal viewer now computes the percentage in a more natural
way.
- Added handling of the Home and End keys to the internal viewer
- Bug fixes.
