I really like the idea of being able to have two panes to work in like
the console mc. But, I know some people will complain :) That does sound
like a great idea for an option however.
  Im thinking about cleaning up and redesinging the file properties
dialog. I have a few NeXT screenshots of the file inspector (will post
them at request) that make the current gmc file dialog look really
sloppy. 

Anyone else think we need a gmc developer list?
