Midnight Commander for Windows

Native Midnight Commander 4.8.30 for Windows/Win32

Windows XP+/32 bit native port of GNU Midnight Commander, based on the current 4.8.30 development stream.

Supports both the recent Windows 10 plus the prior legacy console, 16 and 256 colour modes are available within either.

Midnight Commander (also known as mc) is a free cross-platform orthodox file manager and a clone of Norton Commander.

Features include the ability work with common archive formats as if they were simply another directory, and to function as an SFTP/FTP client. Midnight Commander also includes an builtin editor/viewer, features include syntax highlighting for many languages, macros, code snippets, simple integration with external tools, automatic indentation, mouse support, clipboard and the ability to work in both ASCII and hex modes.

Midnight Commander supports accessing remote filesystems through several methods, including SSH’s Secure File Transfer Protocol, SFTP. This is in addition to FISH, using either a SSH client or legacy RSH connections. This way you can easily transfer files between servers.

Midnight Commander can also rename groups of files, move files to a different directory at the same time as it renames them. It lets the user specify the original and resulting file names using wildcard characters.

To utilise Files transferred over Shell protocol (FISH) over SSH, an ssh client is required, you can either install Win32-OpenSSH or WinXSH. For legacy RSH based connections WinXSH is needed.

Finally the internal editor has built-in spell enabled. To utilise aspell is required, you can optionally install Win32-Aspell.
