Howdy.  I am looking for a program called QuickDOS (Gazelle Software?) that 
will work with MSDOS 4.01.  Alternately, I am looking for something of 
similar functionality.  

QuickDOS is a touchy-feelie replacement for most command line operations.  It
is window oriented (but not dependent on any external window environment).  
The screen has a "menu bar" at the top, listing such commands as Directory,
copy, move, attributes, etc.  There is a main window which shows the files 
in the current directory.  By requesting the above Directory command, one is 
presented with a text-graphic representation of the directory structure on 
the disk, and can select a new directory by moving with the arrow keys.  If 
you know where I can get a newer version of this program, or one that is like
it, I would greatly appreciate some mail.  PLEASE EMAIL TO ME!  I DON'T READ
THIS NEWSGROUP (heck, I have no time to read any newsgroup!!).  Thanks in 
advance. 

Please include ftp sites and filenames of things that sound close.  I will 
be more than happy to give them a try.  If the QuickDOS program is Shareware
or Public Domain, I would sure like to know it.
