ok, thanks for this information - I never patched a kernel yet, and I 
think I will wait a bit, if we really need this.

Well, you are somehow an adminstrator or at least a very, very educated 
user. The customized Slinky we develop is targeted to people who are 
happy to use a PC for writing at text, saving it on a floppy and take it 
with them. So for them MToolsFM is *exactly* what they need - thanks 
again for this valuable tip. Anyhow, we provide the possibility to add 
mc, which is then for the adminstrators who should not be confused by 
the many options and commands mc gives them.

The "Utility"-menu of MToolsFM has commands for zip and unzip beside of 
tar, bzip2, ... and even split.

It was just to complex to install, many dependencies and different 
files. Honestly I think in this moment my knowledge with scripting is 
not enough to solve this.

Bye, Ingo.
