fun: comment about TC on Tom's Hardware Site

[DarkKnight]

I found a somehow funny comment about TC on Tom's Hardware Site. And I think that says a lot about TC popularity!

"Two dots will alert you to the fact that you're in a subdirectory; selecting this allows you to return to the parent directory (those who work a lot with Total Commander may recognize this function)."

Thanks a lot to Mr. Ghisler for this fine Tool.

Hi,

Yes funny indeed
Nice they mentioned it.

I hope that no one will try to make a better filemanager than tcmd
No matter how hard they try, they never will succeed

Greetings.

I thought Microsoft invented the "." and ".."
It was allready used in the early MS-Dos versions...
