Subject: MouseLess Commander 0.8 for Linux

I have uploaded a new version of the MouseLess Commander to
sunsite.unc.edu in the directory /pub/Linux/Incoming, it eventually
will end in /pub/Linux/utils/file/mc-0.8.tar.gz

The MouseLess Commander is a directory browsing tool with a very close
look and feel to John Socha's Norton Commander for DOS. The MouseLess
Commander doesn't have all the bells and whistles of his DOS
counterpart, but it's nice and comes with source code under the GPL.

Many thanks go to Torben Fjerdingstad ([email-masked]) for his
valuable comments, fixes to the code and detailed bug reports. 

Since the last announce in comp.os.linux.announce (version 0.6) this
has changed:

Version 0.8

- The online help now comes with the complete man page.
- Input lines now support M-b and M-f for movent by word
- Unlimited input lines (command line)
- Filename searches now must be started with C-s or M-s
- Many bug fixes

Version 0.7

- The stat() reloading optimization is now a configuration option.
- Many bug fixes went to the find file command.
- New history in the hypertext viewer. 
- ESC-Tab will copy the name of the other-panel selected file to the
  input line.
- Now it's possible to display files and directories mixed together or
  separated (like the Norton Commander).
- Many bug fixes, see the ChangeLog for details.
