A _small_ replacement for midnite commander / mc

A _small_ replacement for midnite commander / mc

[Oliver Ob]

I am fiddling with boot diskettes and found that the entire MC
is a little large, isn't there a SMALL clone?

A small one that uses SHORT libraries is needed!

like under dos in the 90s: we had norton c., sure, but loads
of clones with less than 100 kilobytes doing _almost_ the
same.

i find lynx a little large as well.

best greetings
Olli

Of course the question arises here, why do you want something like MC on a 
"boot diskette".?

Oliver,

I'm no expert, but I believe that the command line small editor that
easily fits on a diskette would be ed for Linux. It has vi-like
commands. Don't know size (perhaps 50 Kb).

Your distribution may have it. Try entering 

     $ ed --help 

to see what happens. If nothing, you can go to rmpfind and ownload
it.

Sorry haines, we were talking NOT of an editor, but (see topic!)
about an mc replacement.

Anyone got experiences with git? (have 7.0 only, its on 7.3)
