CBM COMMAND UPDATED
*************************
What is it?
CBM-Command is a disk manager for the Commodore 64, Commodore 128,
Commodore VIC-20, Commodore Plus/4, and Commodore Pet/CBM computers. It is written in the vein of Norton Commander or Midnight Commander; but, it is much simpler due to the target platforms. Each Commodore model has its own native version of the application.

What does it do?
It works on both real machines and the VICE emulators.

So far, we have tested it with the following hardware:
-Flat Commodore 128 w/JiffyDOS
-Commodore 1571 w/JiffyDOS
-Commodore 1581 w/JiffyDOS
-uIEC/SD
-Commodore 64 (stock)
-Commodore 64 w/JiffyDOS
-Commodore 64 w/SuperCPU
-Commodore 1541 (stock)
-Commodore 1541 w/JiffyDOS
-Blue Chip 128 Disk Drive

Additional testing has been performed under VICE, using the following file systems:
-IDE64 Native Filesystem
-VICE File System
-VICE Virtual Drives (not True Drive Emulation)
-1541 TDE
-1581 TDE
-1551 TDE
-Commodore Plus 4 Emulation
-Commodore VIC 20 Emulation
-Commodore 64 Emulation
