Development of Norton Commander

🔸The Norton Commander was a popular DOS file manager developed by John Socha and Peter Norton Computing, released in 1986 with features like tree views, quick search, and built-in editors. The program dominated the field of DOS file managers until its popularity faded after Symantec acquired the company and failed to produce new versions within a reasonable interval.
