Developer’s Description

popular UNIX file manager
Midnight Commander is a powerful and capable file manager very popular among Linux and FreeBSD users.

In this archive you will find Midnight Commander deb package with support for both console and GUI mode for MacOS X 10.1 which (unlike a lot of other UNIX inherited software):

  1. Do not install anything into MacOS X system directories
  2. Do not alter any system file(s)
  3. Is very easy to remove
Everything will be installed into "/sw" directory on the root level of your startup volume. However, installing Midnight Commander will invoke automatic installation of XFree86 base package, which is placed inside hidden MacOS X system directory "/usr/X11R6"
