	I'm not sure why you would want this but, hey, whatever floats your 
boat.  File management, I figure, is best done with a file manager but 
we all get used to doing things a certain way and that's the way we 
prefer.  I'm not one to judge much; I prefer to do all my file 
manipulation work in either midnight commander or, better yet, right at 
the shell prompt.

	It's like back in the day when I did web stuff.  People would ask me 
what I used to build web pages.  I told them vi(m).  When I started 
doing web stuff there wasn't anything like dreamweaver, frontpage, blah, 
blah.  I could do web stuff faster in vi than I could in any of those 
other apps.
