Midnight Commander

Edit Package mc

Midnight Commander is a Norton Commander clone, a program that
manipulates and manages files and directories. It is useful, fast, and
has color display on the Linux console. It also has mouse support if
you run the gpm mouse server. This program requires the terminal
description files in /usr/lib/terminfo, which are found in ncurses.rpm
(the essential ones) or terminfo.rpm (the rest).

You can also use Midnight Commander under the X Window System with your
mouse. If you enter 'mc -c', colors are used.

In Midnight Commander, the screen is divided into four sections: The
majority of the screen is covered by two directory panels. The second
to last line on the screen is the shell command line. The last line
displays the function key assignments. At the very top, the menu list
is shown. One of the directories displayed is the current working
directory. This is where most of the commands are found. For certain
commands, like copy and move, the second directory is used as the
target directory.

Andre Barros (acobar) -

I submitted a request for update on Base:System, as it seems that this is the main branch, I'm repeating it here.

Updated to newer package version, also 2 patches (mc-ext-audio.patch and mc-extd-sound.patch), and removed a patch applied upstream (mc-rpm.patch). Now the new version of mc builds appropriately.

See: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:acobar:branches:Base:System/mc

The main reason to update, besides the fixed errors, is the elimination of the annoying subshell warning.

  • Update to 4.8.25

    • Avoid subshell warning for standalone mcedit/mcview/mcdiffview run from mc
    • Implement chattr command (change ext{2,3,4}fs extended attributes)
    • New syntax highlighting: Kotlin and ino
    • File highlighting updates
    • Lots of other fixes

  • Updated mc-ext-audio.patch

  • Updated mc-extd-sound.patch

  • Removed mc-rpm.patch
