How to install Midnight commander
Midnight Commander is a very useful file manager.
To run midnight commander you need glib 1.x.x. or newer.
1. Install glib
# wget ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.5/glib-2.5.6.tar.gz
# tar zxvf glib-2.5.6.tar.gz
# cd glib-2.5.6
# ./configure --prefix=/usr
# make
# make install
NOTE. If you're installing Glib 2.x.x configure it with /usr directory.
2. Install Midnight Commander
# wget http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/uti...c-4.6.0.tar.gz
# tar zxvf mc-4.6.0.tar.gz
# cd mc-4.6.0
# ./configure
# make
# make install
To run Midnight commander use
#mc
Also, you may add mouse support. Install gpm daemon to get it work with mouse.

Yum is not available on all platforms. Installing from source is 99% available.
On a sidenote.. anyone knows a secure alternative to mc ?
For some customers, i want to make available something like mc, but one that can be chroot'ed to their homedir.
