Task View - - -============================================================================== -4.1. Destructive Operations - -These are all the operations which can change, and with misuse, possibly -harm your files: - -:chmod <number> Change the rights of the selection -:delete DELETES ALL FILES IN THE SELECTION -:rename <newname> Change the name of the current file -pp, pl, pL, po Pastes the copied files in different ways - -Think twice before using these commands or key combinations. - - -============================================================================== -4.2. The Selection - -Many commands operate on the selection, so it's important to know what -it is: - -If there are marked files: - The selection contains all the marked files. -Otherwise: - The selection contains only the highlighted file. - -"Marked files" are the files which are slightly indented and marked in -yellow (in the default color scheme.) You can mark files by typing "v" or -<space>. - -The "highlighted file", or the "current file", is the one below the cursor. - - -============================================================================== -4.3. Copying and Pasting - - yy copy the selection - dd cut the selection - - ya, da add the selection to the copied/cut files - yr, dr remove the selection from the copied/cut files - - pp paste the copied/cut files. No file will be overwritten. - Instead, a "_" character will be appended to the new filename. - po paste the copied/cut files. Existing files are overwritten. - pl create symbolic links to the copied/cut files. - pL create relative symbolic links to the copied/cut files. - -The difference between copying and cutting should be intuitive: - -When pasting files which are copied, the original file remains unchanged -in any case. - -When pasting files which are cut, the original file will be renamed. -If renaming is not possible because the source and the destination are -on separate devices, it will be copied and eventually the source is deleted. -This implies that a file can only be cut + pasted once. - -The files are either copied or cut, never mixed even if you mix "da" and "ya" -keys (in which case the last command is decisive about whether they are copied -or cut.) - -============================================================================== -4.4. Task View - -The task view lets you manage IO tasks like copying, moving and -loading directories by changing their priority or stop them. - - w open or close the task view - dd stop the task - J decrease the priority of the task - K increase the priority of the task - -The execution of tasks is not parallel but sequential. Only the -topmost task is executed. Ranger constantly switches between -handling GUI and executing tasks. One movement of the throbber at -the top right represents such a switch, so while the throbber is -standing still, ranger is locked by a Input/Output operation and -you will not be able to input any commands. - - -============================================================================== -""" -# vim:tw=78:sw=4:sts=8:ts=8:ft=help |
