Ha!  Edlin... yep.  Haven't used it in years.  In fact, not to date myself,
but I gave up edlin for Epsilon.  At that time it was the latest and
greatest with split panes, etc.  This was long before Windblows 3.1.  That
was about the same time I discovered Stereo Shell, a DOS based file manager
program with two vertically split panes for moving and copying files.  I've
never investigated it, but I would swear Midnight Commander was ported to
Linux by the same guy that wrote Stereo Shell.  Anybody know for sure?

I believe Stereo Shell was (c) Copyright Emery Wooten (M.R.E. Software) of
West Point, MS.
