file manager in a high level language * A quick way to switch directories and browse the file system * Keep it small but useful, do one thing and do it well * Console based, with smooth integration into the unix shell Features -------- * Multi-column display (Miller Columns) * Preview of the selected file/directory * Common file operations (create/chmod/copy/delete/...) * VIM-like console and hotkeys * Automatically determine file types and run them with correct programs * Change the directory of your shell after exiting ranger * Tabs, Bookmarks, Mouse support Dependencies ------------ * A *nix-like operating system * Python 2.6 or Python 3.1 with the curses module Optional: * The "file" program * A pager ("less" by default) * The python module "chardet", in case of encoding detection problems For scope.sh: (enhanced file previews) * img2txt (from caca-utils) for previewing images * highlight for syntax highlighting of code * atool for previews of archives * lynx or elinks for previews of html pages Getting Started --------------- Ranger can be started without installing. Just run the executable (in a terminal.) The switch "--clean" will prevent it from creating or accessing configuration files. Follow the instructions in the INSTALL file for installing ranger. After starting ranger, you should see 4 columns. The third one is the main column, the directory where you're currently at. To the left you see the parent directories and to the right there's a preview of the object you're pointing at. Now use the Arrow Keys to navigate, Enter to open a file or type Q to quit. To customize ranger, copy the files from ranger/defaults/ to ~/.config/ranger/ and modify them according to your wishes. Combine Ranger With Other Applications -------------------------------------- 1. bash: Add this to your ~/.bashrc to use ranger as a directory switcher: function ranger-cd { ranger --choosedir=/tmp/chosen if [ -f /tmp/chosen -a "$(cat /tmp/chosen)" != "$(pwd | tr -d "\n")" ]; then cd "$(cat /tmp/chosen)" fi rm -f /tmp/chosen } bind '"\C-o":"ranger-cd\C-m"' Now when you run ranger-cd, browse and quit, the directory of the bash process you started ranger in will change to the last directroy in ranger. To change back to the previous directory, you can type: cd - Also, the line with "bind" will map the key <CTRL-O> to start ranger. 2. vim: Add this function to your ~/.vimrc: fun Ranger() silent !ranger --choosefile=/tmp/chosen if filereadable('/tmp/chosen') exec 'edit ' . system('cat /tmp/chosen') call system('rm /tmp/chosen') endif redraw! endfun map <leader>r :call Ranger() This starts ranger when you type <leader>r (usually \r) and if you open a file in ranger it will be opened in the original vim process. Troubleshooting, Getting Help ----------------------------- If you encounter an error, try running ranger with --debug. This will sometimes display more detailed information about the error. Also, try deactivating optimization: PYTHONOPTIMIZE="" ranger --debug Report bugs on savannah: (please include as much information as possible) http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=additem&group=ranger Ask questions on the mailing list: http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/ranger-users Further Reading --------------- Check the man page for information on common features and hotkeys. The most detailed manual is accessible by pressing "?" from inside ranger. It is also available at ranger/help/, contained in the *.py files. The file ranger/defaults/keys.py contains all key combinations, so that's another place you may want to check out.
