:roll: What is Midnight Commander and how can I find information on it? I’ve tried man/whatis/apropos and info and f ex Midnight Commander in the command prompt without any result. How do I get my numpad to work properly in AbiWord?

:shock: I am quite new to Linux and have a few questions. 1. What does it mean really, that X does not have to display the graphics with the characteristics the klient wants, but only has to treat it as if it had those chracteristics? 2. When I use ls -1 the system reports 8 files and shows 2, but when I use -al the system reports 132 files and shows 42 (including dot-files). Why does it only report a total of 8 files if there is 132, and why, when using -al, does it only show 42 files, when it ...
