I want more space as shown here:

Default mc with active panels has only one line where the user can type commands, I want to see more console output without pressing ctrl + o pressing.

How can I get it?

Two options here:

  • Try to press Ctrl+O. And forget your FAR, VC and NC :)

  • It seems that functionality is already here: press F9 (or Options), select Layout and find Console output here. It works in native Linux console (plain VT, such as Ctrl+Alt+F1) on 12.04 LTS, 17.04, 17.10 and 18.04 LTS, but not on 14.04 LTS and 16.04 LTS. There are upstream bug and launchpad bug about that.
