I found way to change history of commadns in linux shell.
And I found, change and compiled norton commander-like file manager (based on vifm - file manager for vi).
I rewrite some code, for running any programs and text files with commands (shell scripts) instead running vim (in original vifm), and added copy command for Space key (X key on dingoo).
So, we can run any games, any music with madplay (for example), any shell scripts, and all from command line or using file manager, And we can copy files and directories on file manager - all with unplugged usb cable. (Left - go up directory, Right or Enter (start) - running program or open directoriy, Tab (L key) - change current file panel, Space (X key) - copy file.)
If anybody need, i share binaries here. There are two binaries on zip file: vifm - main file, and pauseme - second file, you must put it on /usr/bin directory.
Original source code shared free, modified sources I'll share later, after some changing for more userful. We have 4 unused buttons (Y, B, A and R). Select (esc) I think using for exit, R for additional menu.
P.S. This is my first rewrited (modified) and compiled program on linux
P.P.S. And I dont use LiveCD or Virtual Box))

Great. Thanks a lot for sharing. I just downloading it and will try it then

Thank you very much ainu, this will come in hand A LOT once dual boot is released. The file manager is a nice and simple gui that we can use until something else is ported.

EDIT: I cant seem to download the file, if you could upload it somewhere else that would be nice, your site seems to be down.

Link fixed, sorry... later - later I share next version (with sources). I'll share release in dl.openhandhelds.org.

Thank's very good job Ainu

Later..
But for now, for using, you must:
1. copy pauseme to /usr/bin directory on dingoo
2. put vifm to Cd card, or put into dingoo file system, for example, to /home/fileman
3. go to folder, where you put vifm, anr run ./vifm
4. start to run, L to choose panel, X to copy files.

If you ask for a running programs and using history file, see my previous post: way-to-use-programs-without-minicom-or-telnet-t592.html

And I found another way to compile programs on Windows - installing coLinux or (better) andLinux - very good choose, for me.
http://andlinux.org/downloads.php - KDE version.
In next screenshots you may see Windows 7 with working Linux.

I used to use colinux a couple years back, it is very good but the only problem comes in updating. It may have changed since I last used it but since it has to have a hacked up kernel and processes to run correctly, when you update it you can get into problems. It was generally faster than using a virtual linux installation, but again in the end it had a whole lot more issues than a virtual install.

Keep in mind this was about 3 or more years ago, so Im assuming the project has progressed greatly since then.

I'm having problems trying to get this to work. I downloaded the archive, and copied the contents to the Dingoo like you said(Pauseme in /usr/bin and vifm in /home/myname). The first thing I did when I booted was to remount the root file system as read/write, then I moved to the directory with vifm, I then ran ./vifm and it said Permission denied, so I changed the permissions to rwx for root, then tried to run it again, this time it said ./vifm: file not found. I think you had a similar problem with prboom in the Linux thread(I haven't read all of it yet, so I don't know if/how you fixed it), could you please post some help here, I can give you any more information if you need it(I'm using Booboo's rootfs right now).
