Gnome Commander - neat! I might even get used to it :-) . Thanks for the 
push.

Using it for the first time so don't know it's history. Is it still in 
development stage? Wondering because I have 2 HDs with 11 partitions 
between them and when using GC in the vertical split mode the list of 
partitions is all 'scrambed' up over the second (right-hand) pane. Is 
this because I need to configure something or is this a bug/feature, do 
you know?
