Why is it that every graphical file manager only has one file pane? Why is it, that GnomeMC is nothing like midnight commander? It doesn't have any of the features, or quality that midnight commander had. It doesn't have one tenth of the features, or usability. I shouldn't even be allowed to take the same name!
Its seems that we have another dull file manager here, one meant for people that don't want to manage files, but just look at them, and access them. A single pane interface is slow for copying, and working with the files. Sure, it looks nice, but I'll take something like Filerunner or Gentoo ANY day over something that looks good, but is completely non-functional.
When someone takes something like Filerunner or Gentoo, and then gives it a GUI front end like GMC, then I'll be interested. Otherwise, what's the point?! I can use Filerunner right now to do everything GMC does, plus tons more!

Bah! (yes, this was a rant
