Replacing dual panel interface with MDI
A free file archiver for extremely high compression

Currently Alt-left/right/up lists directory in the other
panel. This may interfere future implementation of drop
down menu on top of the window, which eventually
reserves Alt-left/right for navigating previous and next
lists of items. A more robust approach is to use multiple
document interface and open new folder view, which is
already done with 'Open Outside' command in File
menu. Within each subwindow, the vertical split bar
should split the file and directory list. Status bar should
be shared across document to give more space per
window.

I'm not sure.
BTW, how it can interfere with drop down menu?

For example, the MDI may use alt-left/right to go to the
previous/next directory that was previously used, instead of
opening contents to the other panel. The alt-left/right key
mapping wouldn't make sense with an interface that can have
3 or more 7-Zip File Manager windows.
