- Well, tuart 2.4 comes with an online manual, which has a section called
- features that tells you of the things you can do wih Stuart you can't do
- in terminal. It's a *very* large section of the manual. Rather than
- repeat all of the stuff, I'll just give the titles of the subsections of
- the Features section of the manual:
-
- Altenrative Arrow
- Environment File
- Mouse FocusServices
- Site Preferences
- Stuartrc
- Directory
- OSC
- Schelf
- Drag&Drop
- Filename Pasting
-
- Each of these has about a page of text (sometimes more) describing the
- extra features. Given the large number it's probably best if you snarf
- Stuart, read through the manual, and then make your own decision.
-
- Hope this is Helpful
