Same here.  I have filled in some of its deficiencies by adding my preferred
applications to the pull-down menu,  including PCTOOLS 4.2, Buerg's List, 
and my favorite text editor.  
  
One thing to beware.. Some early revs of PC-Tools V6 are buggy.  I can 
recommend revs 5/02/90 or later.  If you have earlier versions, I'd yell 
for a bug-fix upgrade.
