Correct. > Another one (IMO much better than NC) is FAR (File ARchiver). > > Whoever then comes out with the idea of graphical shell for DOS/Windows > should be aware of the existance of at least those two products. I think it's true not only for DOS and Windows. It's usually a good idea to be compatible with other software (even for other platforms) when it comes to user interface. > A question to Pavel. Back in 1990-91 I've been working with QNX very often > with the help from some graphical shell. Could it be MC? I don't think so. The old ChangeLog for Midnight Commander starts in 1994. Also the copyright for the widget library (src/widget.c) starts in 1994. P.S.
