Hi people,

You may have noticed my smb3 port is on hold for a while right ? Well the main reason for it is this:

http://sites.google.com/site/msxengine/the-msx-commander

I've been working on it the last 3 months and now it has basic navigation features for rolling out. Time to use your old msx mouse :)

I will be adding the other features on the road.

Enjoy,

I just played with the MSX Commander on my MSX. Looks nice.. that's for sure! I like the menu , feel and look.
Hope to see the copy, move etc. options soon
One thing.. if you scroll down and up in the file list.. it seems a bit slow (Even on 7 mhz.) Maybe you could improve this a little ?

hmm, might need to use the ALT to select the item and the menu instead of the mouse, because the craft is to use the quick buttons faster than the mouse.

Besides the versions for DOS1 ND, who made this version was born in 2012, it took him so long to wait? And then the menu at 80 columns, 40 columns can also be for?
Go forward and you're good ...

Almost forgot, do not use F9 because otherwise you have to press SHIFT + F4, in fact, two keys are too many there
just 1 button, F4 corresponds to short!

New version improves double click and garbage on last line.

As I said: it uses and object oriented approach. It cab be optimized but it will always have performance hit. You can use Ctrl+Up/Down to page up and down, it goes faster.

And, no, no MODE 40. This is a MSX2 program.

@retrocanada76 what you now have all show a very worthy! Looks very,very good!

All MSX are very happy with this program and would love to have in their possession. Because this is yet another piece of MSX world open! I am certainly very happy to hopefully be able to download it soon. All for your compliments. Or keys now so go or else does not matter.

But the link to download is at the end of the page, click on the down arrow at the right. Google sites has a stupid link feature.
