It's probably cheating, but, there are a number of Dopus config files other users have uploaded to Aminet.  Most of the color schemes are garish, but the syntax of the buttons and menus for common (and not so common) tasks are excellent tutorials.  Most times you can copy commands into your config and only need to change the paths to your requirements.

Some dopus users were very creative. Grin.

EDIT: I'm running 4.16 here and have not seen this bug.  The latest version is tempting.

Did you see Matt's post and link above about 4.17pre21?  

IIRC, 4.17 is a cleaned up and bug fixed version of the original commercial Dopus (4.16?)

@ Matt

I guess my recollection isn't what it used to be, grin.  Thanks for the better info.

@Kat

For me, Dopus is kind of a chicken and egg problem.  I configure a menu with all of the archivers and then never think about them again (foolproof de-archiving is just a click of the mouse).  When starting from scratch, I have to study all of that to get Dopus loaded and configged.

Amiga really does have the greatest variety (if not the best quality) directory utilities of any platform.
