.TH RANGER 1 ranger-1.0.4
.SH NAME
ranger - visual file manager
.\"-----------------------------------------
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B ranger
.R [OPTIONS] [FILE]
.\"-----------------------------------------
.SH DESCRIPTION
Ranger is a file manager with an ncurses frontend written in Python.
.P
It is designed to give you a broader overview of the file system by displaying
previews and backviews, dividing the screen into several columns.
The keybindings are similar to those of other console programs like
.BR vim ", " mutt " or " ncmpcpp
so the usage will be intuitive and efficient.
.\"-----------------------------------------
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
--version
Print the version and exit.
.TP
-h, --help
Print a list of options and exit.
.TP
-d, --debug
Activate the debug mode:  Whenever an error occurs, ranger will exit and
print a full backtrace.  The default behaviour is to merely print the
name of the exception in the statusbar/log and to try to keep running.
.TP
-c, --clean
Activate the clean mode:  Ranger will not access or create any configuration
files nor will it leave any traces on your system.  This is useful when
your configuration is broken, when you want to avoid clutter, etc.
.TP
--fail-if-run
Return the exit code 1 if ranger is used to run a file, for example with
`ranger --fail-if-run filename`.  This can be useful for scripts.
.TP
-r \fIdir\fR, --confdir=\fIdir\fR
Define a different configuration directory.  The default is $HOME/.ranger.
.TP
-m \fIn\fR, --mode=\fIn\fR
When a filename is supplied, make it run in mode \fIn\fR. Check the
documentation for more information on modes.
.TP
-f \fIflags\fR, --flags=\fIflags\fR
When a filename is supplied, make it run with the flags \fIflags\fR. Check the
documentation for more information on flags.
.\"-----------------------------------------
.SH USAGE
.\"-----------------------------------------
.SS General Keybindings

.SS Keybindings for using Tabs

it will be created.
.TP
gn, ^N
Create a new tab.
.TP
gt, gT

.\"-----------------------------------------
.SS Commands
.TP
:delete
Destroy all files in the selection with a roundhouse kick.  Ranger will
ask for a confirmation if you attempt to delete multiple (marked) files or
non-empty directories.
.TP
:rename \fInewname\fR
Rename the current file.  Also try the keybinding A for appending something
to a file name.
.TP
:quit
Quit ranger.  The current directory will be bookmarked as ' so you can
re-enter it by typing `` or '' the next time you start ranger.
.\"-----------------------------------------
.SH TIPS
.SS
Change the directory after exit
A script like this in your bashrc would make you change the directory
of your parent shell after exiting ranger:
.nf

ranger() {
    command ranger --fail-if-run $@ &&
    cd "$(grep \\^\\' ~/.ranger/bookmarks | cut -b3-)"
}
.\"-----------------------------------------
.SH CONFIGURATION
The files in
.B ranger/defaults/
can be copied into your configuration directory (by default, this is
$HOME/.ranger) and customized according to your wishes.  
.B ranger/defaults/options.py
doesn't have to be copied completely though: Just define those settings
you want to change and they will override the default values.
Colorschemes can be placed in $HOME/.ranger/colorschemes.
.P
All configuration is done in Python.
Each configuration file should contain sufficient documentation.
