Picocalc Commander (PCC)

I made a dual-pane file manager and launcher for the Picocalc “Norton Commander” style, written in MMbasic, I thought I’d share.

This app has inspired me to set up an onboot.bas file, which switches to B: and runs PCC. This in turn has inspired me to reorganize my ever-growing file system into something logical, since that no longer requires tedious and frequent typing. It has made the PicoCalc much more manageable for me.

Thanks for your contribution!

If I had one wish: include an edit as well as run command.

First, thank you for this program, I have Midnight Commander (Norton Commander clone for Linux) on all of my PCs, and Total Commander (for Android) on my phones and tablets. In other words, I use * Commander programs quite often, and this looks pretty cool. It’s really responsive, and only took me a few seconds to move the pcc.bas file over to the A: drive, and I set it up to run PCC on F6 as suggested in your GitHub page.

Second, I would like to second @Vank’s request for editing ability. In addition, an ability to send, and receive, files via xmodem.

Beyond that, is there a way to sort the files by name, or extension?
