Title: mc.tcz Description: Console or Virtual Terminal File Manager Version: 4.8.33 Author: https://github.com/MidnightCommander/mc/blob/master/AUTHORS Original-site: https://github.com/MidnightCommander/mc Copying-policy: GPL v3 Size: 896K Extension_by: aus9 @linuxquestions.org Tags: tty console terminal file manager Comments: Arrow up/down works by default for aterm, lxterminal, sakura, tilda and urxvt (TCE=rxvt) Other terms not tested. aterm users ############ If you are NOT using wbar NOR file manager to launch mc desktop file, then (1) launch aterm with your font size (eg) $ aterm -fn 12x24 & (2) $ export LANG=C && mc For those who like kb shortcuts, link a key to command=mc-fix.sh mc-fix.sh will appear in your $HOME/.local/bin and it is SAFE to ignore "tc" but you may want to decrease font size as the line reads "export LANG=C && aterm -fn 12x24 -e mc" aterm is not UTF8 capable so if you want UTF8 support search for one in Apps tags=terminal. If I delete LANG=C I get garbled display! If you are using wbar or clicking desktop file ...the font size is determined by your mc-fix.sh contents. If you use apps GUI, you will need aterm for downloads otherwise run $ tce-load -w TCE-name Optional deps: perl5 for misc. functions No support for trash can On first launch configs at ~/.config/mc mc allows live config changes, mc-> Options -> Configuration mc has read-write file association files under /usr/local/libexec/mc/ext.d Any you change and need over reboot, add to your backup please. eg usr/local/libexec/mc/ext.d/doc.sh mouse is supported this build for virtual terminal users.
