Yes, thats the way it is, Venus is the graphic-shell und Mupfel command-
line-interface. Gemini is both shells combined in one program. Venus do
not perform file-commands (copy, delete, ...) itself, it needs Mupfel to
do other things than just starting programs and managing itself.
A hint: try to get Gemini V1.2, its realy superb and has many improvements.
But i'm not the one to tell you this, i'm shure you soon will read something
about the new version...
