Linux mc Command

The Linux mc command provides a menu-driven file management program.

After executing mc, you will see a menu-driven file management program divided into 4 parts.

mc [-abcdfhkPstuUVx][-C <arguments>][-l <file>][-v <file>][directory]

Parameters:

-a 　Do not use graphic characters when drawing lines in the mc program.
-b 　Display in monochrome mode.
-c 　Display in color mode.
-C<arguments> 　Specify display colors.
-d 　Do not use the mouse.
-f 　Show the directory where the mc library is located.
-h 　Display help.
-k 　Reset softkeys to the default setting.
-l<file> 　Save the contents of the ftpfs dialog window in the specified file.
-P 　List the last working directory when the program ends.
-s 　Display in slow terminal mode, which reduces a lot of drawing and text display.
-t 　Use the TEMPCAP variable to set the terminal, instead of the default setting.
-u 　Do not use the current shell program.
-U 　Use the current shell program.
-v<file> 　Use the internal editor of mc to display the specified file.
-V 　Display version information.
-x 　Specify display in xterm mode.
