Isn't that odd? I almost never run mc as anything other than root. I
normally use Nautilus or Thunar for file work, but if it's anything
a bit hairy, I fire up a sudo mc terminal.

It's Zen, or something, I see the old Norton Commander window and it
takes me back to the days when hard drives were measured in tens of
megabytes, and the computer cost as much as a car. 'For God's sake, be
careful, lad, this thing is live!'
