MX Linux Forum

Been using MC as file manager for over 100 years (or thereabouts??)... Midnight Commander has only been around for 25 years - I've used it roughly 20 of those. Sounds about right! Just seems like 100 sometimes ey?! It was one of the 1st Linux programs to convince me about "do one job; do it well ...

Probably because there's a default keyboard shortcut in MX mapping F4 to xfce4-terminal --hide-menubar --hide-borders --drop-down which brings up a drop-down terminal. You can use Start -> Settings -> Keyboard -> Application Shortcuts (tab) to remove that shortcut. Midnight Commander will then see ...

Thanks @Stevo & @manyroads for this thread and your efforts. I LOVE Polybar; always use it on Openbox installs. This will go great with my Antix Fluxbox installs I hope?!

Also, this post spurred me to look closer at the captcha plug-in options we use and set it up better. Everyone's a winner! Everyone's a winner ...

Much easier, thank you @anti. However, I did not ask the original question with an aim to make your valuable time more harrowed. I have no problem with you setting spam traps in front of the page, I just thought there might be an alternative to the photos that I have a lot of difficulty with? I will ...

Just been trying to log into Antix forums again and failing. The problem I have is with those poky images for "robot" checking! I am of "aging" years with poor eyesight and, seriously, I can't make out half the detail in those photos. They are too small and unclear. I simply give up out of ...

He describes the Linux I came through - 1988 (then early 90's in earnest) to now. Nowadays I find I have to bite my tongue and aplogise a lot to newbies because I dare to suggest they get out of the way of their own shadow and participate in their own solutions?! Still, great journey, have not had a ...
