Ranger v.1.0.3 ============== Ranger A keeper, guardian, or soldier who ranges over a region to protect the area or enforce the law. This is the filemanager Chuck Norris the Texas Ranger would use if he had a computer with an unix-like operating system. (He doesn't trust computers though and prefers to do the calculations himself.) After all, as a professional ranger, he needs a broad overview of his territory, and the multi-column display of ranger provides just that, rather than restricting you to the current directory only. You can preview the content of the selected file or directory, copy or move files around with the VIM-like commands dd and yy, execute predefined applications when opening a file, etc... Everything is fully customizable and written in Python (2.6 and 3.1 compatible) using curses for the text-based user interface. About ----- * Author: Roman Zimbelmann * Email: romanz@lavabit.com * Git repo: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/ranger.git * Version: 1.0.3 Features -------- * Multi-column display * Preview of the selected file/directory * Common file operations (create/chmod/copy/delete/...) * Quickly find files or text inside files * VIM-like console and hotkeys * Open files in external programs * Mouse support * Change the directory of your shell after exiting ranger * Bookmarks Dependencies ------------ * An Unix-like Operating System * Python 2.6 or 3.1 * Python curses module (often but not always included with Python) Bugs and Feature Requests ------------------------- Report bugs and feature requests on savannah: https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=additem&group=ranger Alternatively you can send an email to romanz@lavabit.com. Please include as much relevant information as possible. Using ranger with the --debug option will abort the program and print tracebacks rather than a red message in the statusbar. If this applies to you, please include such a traceback in your report. Getting Started --------------- If you just want to check out ranger without installing it, type ./ranger.py --clean in the top directory of ranger. By using the --clean switch, it will leave no trace on your system whatsoever. To properly install it, follow the instructions in the INSTALL file, then type: ranger You should see 4 columns. The third is the directory where you are at the moment. To the left, there are the directories above the current working directory, and the column on the right is a preview of the selected file/directory. Now use the arrow keys to navigate, press enter to open a file. A list of commands with short descriptions can be viewed by pressing "?" inside the program and following the instructions. The file code/keys.rb contains all key combinations, so that's another place you may want to check out. More extensive documentation will be written when enough users ask me to :) Opening Files with Ranger ------------------------- If you use the same applications like me, you'll be able to open files by pressing the right arrow key. If not, you will have to specify them in ranger/defaults/apps.py. It's explained in the docstrings how exactly to do that. Once you've set up your applications, you can also use ranger to open files from the shell: ranger blabla.pdf Customizing Ranger ------------------ The file ranger/defaults/options.py contains most of the options. apps.py defines how files are run, keys.py defines keybindings. The files in ranger/defaults/ can be copied into ~/.ranger/ for per-user modifications. Colorschemes can be placed in ~/.ranger/colorschemes. The configuration files should be self-explanatory. If you need more information, check out the source code. Also, see the file HACKING for more detailed instructions on modifying the program.
