Thank you for the tip on MC. That is one great program. I really missed
DosShell or Still River Shell and this is very much like SR. Joshua of
Josh's Linux page tipped me to pico and it is a very nice editor to take the
place of Dos's Edit.com. Those were my two big stumbling blocks. How to
see what is on my disk and find the executables, configs, and batch files.
The other was how to edit them after I found them. I know they're called
different things in Linux but I don't have that down pat yet.
