I have used both norton commander and Xtree and they have
thier pros and cons :

Nortron Commander :  DOS prompt available at all times
                     Built-in editor and viewer
                     User-definable windows and function
                     Allows you to delete files or any attributes

Xtree : Allows you to see entire directory structure
        No built-in editor
        Built in attribute changer

  I generally prefer to use Xtree for end users while I prefer personally
to use Norton Commander because it is easier to call up other programs 
by DOS command prompt and the built in editor for changing BAT files

Hope this helps
