Open the TE first, then do 'mc'. Open as many as you have TEs, and more. mc is an "OFM" http://www.softpanorama.org/OFM/Paradigm/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_manager#Orthodox_file_managers I always have multiple mc instances open. I normally have a filecommander instance open too, filling one virtual desktop. http://silk.apana.org.au/fc.html Font in it is handled by its own ini file, as are its row and column counts. It has two different sets of directory hotkeys, one "permanent", one history-based. In Linux, fc & mc are the only file managers I use. Both are heavily used. -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Whatever else you get, get wisdom." Proverbs 4:7 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!
