  I also have Xtree Gold (commercialware) but I prefer DOS Navigator
(freeware) for most things. I have both available on my "homepage" which
is a collection of DOS applications (but includes Win3.1).

  Which only goes to show what can be done with such a versatile system as 
Arachne.

   Even so, I still don't want the QuickDelete taken away from Arachne's
features. A single mouse click followed by a single key stroke will
always beat invoking another application.

Regards,
        Ron
