i tried to install the latest version of DOpus from that polish site, but it requires some certain library called 'dopus.library' or sth. linke that...unfortunately it's not included...or do i need glasses?

@Ollibolli:

You probably downloaded the Beta version. The beta versions do only include the files that changed since the latest release.

Download and install v4.16 (this version comes with dopus.library), then update it with the files from the 4.17beta version.

For those of you who don't have enough RAM to handle DOpus, try AFCopy. It's freeware, it can be found on aminet and it's highly configurable. The only problem is that it does not launch executables but Dopus doesn't either if don't have RAM.

It seems M$ got angry about Windows Commander using its registered trademark (Windows) in the program's name and forced them to change it's name.

Now, the old Windows Commander is now called: Total Commander .

This really sounds like M$ doesn't it?

For Amiga try

MIDNIGHT COMMANDER ( aminet ) - open source

It's really really really similar to norton commander for dos ( it's a copy )

I have used it a bit with Linux ( it's console based, i used it on a old 486... ) but for that os i prefer Worker
( see http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?...t=file+manager ),

and for Amiga Dopus4.

Ok, I'll agree that V4 is better for limited systems and that early Version 5's were a bit dodgy, but I've been
using V5.82 for 18 months now (as a workbench replacement) and it is very stable and very powerfull...

As for something similar on the PC, why not try Dopus6? there are working keymakers for it out there if the price puts you off
