mc (Midnight Commander) Usage

The Midnight Commander is a directory browsing and file manipulation program that provides a flexible, powerful, and convenient set of file and directory operations.

How to use it with your free shell account?

Unfortunately under OpenBSD mc is still affected by this Midnight Commander bug:

$ mc
... unimplemented subshell type 1 ...

In order to mitigate this bug and make possible to use 'mc' in your shell account, customize your ~/.profile by issuing the command:

$ cat >> ~/.profile
alias mc='mc -u'

Please note the double >> , otherwise you will purge your ~/.profile and this will create troubles with subsequent logins to your shell account!
