There are some functionalities which I liked about mc, but if I shared shell 
with somebody, it was nightmare to search history and mc history to find out 
what he did wrong... And later, I recognized, is better to use "standard" tools 
than others - simply if you want to fix system of somebody else, you can not 
tell him: "first you have to install mc and nano". So I stayed with tar, mv, vi 
and so on - these are usualy there...

(I am using RHEL/Centos - and these rpm/yum related distros)
