I don't think it would be cool.. and i don't like Norton Commander 5.0 - it
is huge,slow and stupid. Volcov Commander + ARCview is smaller,faster and
(imho) offers better interface.

Nope. btw (imho) Demos Commander is much better.. at least it works with
termcap,not terminfo - and works correctly with VT100 keyboard.
