Hello Patrick,

you have closed this bug to which I do not agree as it is...
Since Debian ship already

----[ '/usr/bin/mcedit-debian' ]----
#!/bin/sh

# mcedit wrapper for Debian alternatives system

mcedit $@
------------------------------------

I suggest to create the file

----[ '/usr/bin/mcview-debian' ]----------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

# mcview wrapper for Debian alternatives system

if [ -z "$1" ] ; then
  if which mktemp ; then
   TMPFILE=$(mktemp -t mcview.XXXXXX)
  fi
  if [ -z "${TMPFILE}" ] ; then
     TMPFILE=/tmp/mcview.$$
     touch ${TMPFILE}
     chmod 0700 ${TMPFILE}
  fi
  cat       >${TMPFILE}
  mcview     ${TMPFILE}
  rm --force ${TMPFILE}
else
  mcview "$1"
fi
------------------------------------------------------------------------

and add it to the alternatives system as  "mcedit-debian"  before.  This
is what I do since some years and this  solution  would  satisfait  MOST
users of Midnight Commander.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
