Interestingly, the man page says:
Please don't add verbatim copies of the function
definitions below. Source the files
tively /usr/lib/mc/bin/mc.csh (tcsh users) instead.
This way you will not need to change your profiles
if the function definitions are improved, provided
that you don't compile MC with a different prefix.

But my potato machine doesn't have any /usr/lib/mc/bin/mc.sh. In
fact, I can't find any mc.sh or mc.csh anywhere on the machine. So
one can get the desired effect by copying the shell function, but it
doesn't seem possible to follow the instructions given in the man
pages. Does it warrant a bug report? Documentation should accurately
reflect the system.
