.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
ranger is a console file manager with \s-1VI\s0 key bindings.  It provides a
minimalistic and nice curses interface with a view on the directory hierarchy.
The secondary task of ranger is to figure out which program you want to use to
open your files with.
.PP
This manual mainly contains information on the usage of ranger.  Refer to the
\&\fI\s-1README\s0\fR for install instructions and to \fIdoc/HACKING\fR for development
specific information.  For configuration, see the files in \fIranger/defaults\fR.
They are usually installed to \fI/usr/lib/python*/site\-packages/ranger/defaults\fR
and can be obtained with ranger's \-\-copy\-config option.
.PP
Inside ranger, you can press \fI1?\fR for a list of key bindings, \fI2?\fR for a list
of commands and \fI3?\fR for a list of settings.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
.IP "\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-debug\fR" 14
.IX Item "-d, --debug"
Activate the debug mode: Whenever an error occurs, ranger will exit and print a
full traceback.  The default behavior is to merely print the name of the
exception in the statusbar/log and try to keep running.
.IP "\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-clean\fR" 14
.IX Item "-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.
.IP "\fB\-\-choosefile\fR=\fItargetfile\fR" 14
.IX Item "--choosefile=targetfile"
Allows you to pick a file with ranger.  This changes the behavior so that when
you open a file, ranger will exit and write the absolute path of that file into
\&\fItargetfile\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-choosefiles\fR=\fItargetfile\fR" 14
.IX Item "--choosefiles=targetfile"
Allows you to pick multiple files with ranger.  This changes the behavior so
that when you open a file, ranger will exit and write the absolute paths of all
selected files into \fItargetfile\fR, adding one newline after each filename.
.IP "\fB\-\-choosedir\fR=\fItargetfile\fR" 14
.IX Item "--choosedir=targetfile"
Allows you to pick a directory with ranger.  When you exit ranger, it will
write the last visited directory into \fItargetfile\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-selectfile\fR=\fItargetfile\fR" 14
.IX Item "--selectfile=targetfile"
Open ranger with \fItargetfile\fR selected.
.IP "\fB\-\-copy\-config\fR=\fIfile\fR" 14
.IX Item "--copy-config=file"
Create copies of the default configuration files in your local configuration
directory.  Existing ones will not be overwritten.  Possible values: \fIall\fR,
\&\fIrc\fR, \fIapps\fR, \fIcommands\fR, \fIoptions\fR, \fIscope\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-list\-unused\-keys\fR" 14
.IX Item "--list-unused-keys"
List common keys which are not bound to any action in the \*(L"browser\*(R" context.
This list is not complete, you can bind any key that is supported by curses:
use the key code returned by \f(CW\*(C`getch()\*(C'\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-list\-tagged\-files\fR=\fItag\fR" 14
.IX Item "--list-tagged-files=tag"
List all files which are tagged with the given tag.  Note: Tags are single
characters.  The default tag is \*(L"*\*(R"
.IP "\fB\-\-fail\-unless\-cd\fR" 14
.IX Item "--fail-unless-cd"
Return the exit code 1 if ranger is used to run a file instead of used for file
browsing. (For example, \*(L"ranger \-\-fail\-unless\-cd test.txt\*(R" returns 1.)
.IP "\fB\-m\fR \fIn\fR, \fB\-\-mode\fR=\fIn\fR" 14
.IX Item "-m n, --mode=n"
When a filename is supplied, run it in mode \fIn\fR.  This has no effect unless
the execution of this file type is explicitly handled in the configuration.
.IP "\fB\-f\fR \fIflags\fR, \fB\-\-flags\fR=\fIflags\fR" 14
.IX Item "-f flags, --flags=flags"
When a filename is supplied, run it with the given \fIflags\fR to modify
behavior.  The execution of this file type is explicitly handled in the
configuration.
.IP "\fB\-\-cmd\fR=\fIcommand\fR" 14
.IX Item "--cmd=command"
Execute the command after the configuration has been read.  Use this option
multiple times to run multiple commands.
.IP "\fB\-\-version\fR" 14
.IX Item "--version"
Print the version and exit.
.IP "\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR" 14
.IX Item "-h, --help"
Print a list of options and exit.
.SH "CONCEPTS"
.IX Header "CONCEPTS"
.SS "\s-1TAGS\s0"
.IX Subsection "TAGS"
Tags are single characters which are displayed left of a filename.  You can use
tags however you want.  Press \*(L"t\*(R" to toggle tags and \*(L"T\*(R" to remove any tags of
the selection. The default tag is an Asterisk (\*(L"*\*(R"), but you can use any tag by
typing \fI"<tagname>\fR.
.SS "\s-1PREVIEWS\s0"
.IX Subsection "PREVIEWS"
By default, only text files are previewed, but you can enable external preview
scripts by setting the option \f(CW\*(C`use_preview_script\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`preview_files\*(C'\fR to True.
.PP
This default script is \fI~/.config/ranger/scope.sh\fR. It contains more
documentation and calls to the programs \fIlynx\fR and \fIelinks\fR for html,
\&\fIhighlight\fR for text/code, \fIimg2txt\fR for images, \fIatool\fR for archives,
\&\fIpdftotext\fR for PDFs and \fImediainfo\fR for video and audio files.
.PP
Install these programs (just the ones you need) and scope.sh will automatically
use them.
.SS "\s-1SELECTION\s0"
.IX Subsection "SELECTION"
The \fIselection\fR is defined as \*(L"All marked files \s-1IF\s0 \s-1THERE\s0 \s-1ARE\s0 \s-1ANY\s0, otherwise
the current file.\*(R"  Be aware of this when using the :delete command, which
deletes all files in the selection.
.PP
You can mark files by pressing <Space>, v, etc.  A yellow \fBMrk\fR symbol at the
bottom right indicates that there are marked files in this directory.
.SS "\s-1MACROS\s0"
.IX Subsection "MACROS"
Macros can be used in commands to abbreviate things.
.PP
.Vb 5
\& %f   the highlighted file
\& %d   the path of the current directory
\& %s   the selected files in the current directory.
\& %t   all tagged files in the current directory
\& %c   the full paths of the currently copied/cut files
.Ve
.PP
The macros \f(CW%f\fR, \f(CW%d\fR and \f(CW%s\fR also have upper case variants, \f(CW%F\fR, \f(CW%D\fR and \f(CW%S\fR,
which refer to the next tab.  To refer to specific tabs, add a number in
between.  (%7s = selection of the seventh tab.)
.PP
\&\f(CW%c\fR is the only macro which ranges out of the current directory. So you may
\&\*(L"abuse\*(R" the copying function for other purposes, like diffing two files which
are in different directories:
.PP
.Vb 2
\& Yank the file A (type yy), move to the file B, then type
\& @diff %c %f
.Ve
.PP
Macros for file paths are generally shell-escaped so they can be used in the
:shell command.
.SS "\s-1BOOKMARKS\s0"
.IX Subsection "BOOKMARKS"
Type \fBm<key>\fR to bookmark the current directory. You can re-enter this
directory by typing \fB`<key>\fR. <key> can be any letter or digit.  Unlike vim,
both lowercase and uppercase bookmarks are persistent.
.PP
Each time you jump to a bookmark, the special bookmark at key ` will be set
to the last directory. So typing \*(L"``\*(R" gets you back to where you were before.
.PP
Bookmarks are selectable when tabbing in the :cd command.
.PP
Note: The bookmarks ' (Apostrophe) and ` (Backtick) are the same.
.SS "\s-1FLAGS\s0"
.IX Subsection "FLAGS"
Flags give you a way to modify the behavior of the spawned process.  They are
used in the commands :open_with (key \*(L"r\*(R") and :shell (key \*(L"!\*(R").
.PP
.Vb 7
\& s   Silent mode.  Output will be discarded.
\& d   Detach the process.  (Run in background)
\& p   Redirect output to the pager
\& w   Wait for an Enter\-press when the process is done
\& c   Run the current file only, instead of the selection
\& r   Run application with root privilege (requires sudo) 
\& t   Run application in a new terminal window
.Ve
.PP
By default, all the flags are off unless specified otherwise in the \fIapps.py\fR
configuration file.  You can specify as many flags as you want.  An uppercase
flag negates the effect: \*(L"ddcccDs\*(R" is equivalent to \*(L"cs\*(R".
.PP
The \*(L"t\*(R" flag looks for the environment variable \s-1TERMCMD\s0, and uses it as the
terminal command, if it's not set it'll use xterm.
.PP
Examples: \f(CW\*(C`:open_with p\*(C'\fR will pipe the output of that process into
the pager.  \f(CW\*(C`:shell \-w df\*(C'\fR will run \*(L"df\*(R" and wait for you to press Enter before
switching back to ranger.
.SS "\s-1MODES\s0"
.IX Subsection "MODES"
By specifying a mode (a positive integer), you can tell ranger what to do with
a file when running it. You can specify which mode to use by typing <mode>l or
<mode><Enter> or :open_with <mode>.  The default mode is 0.
.PP
Examples: \f(CW\*(C`l\*(C'\fR (mode zero) to list the contents of an archive, \f(CW\*(C`1l\*(C'\fR (mode one)
to extract an archive.  See the \fIapps.py\fR configuration file for all programs
and modes.
.SH "KEY BINDINGS"
.IX Header "KEY BINDINGS"
Key bindings are defined in the file \fIranger/defaults/rc.conf\fR.  Check this
file for a list of all key bindings.  You can copy it to your local
configuration directory with the \-\-copy\-config=rc option.
.PP
Many key bindings take an additional numeric argument.  Type \fI5j\fR to move
down 5 lines, \fI2l\fR to open a file in mode 2, \fI10<Space>\fR to mark 10 files.
.PP
This list contains the most useful bindings:

a hotkey exists.
.PP
Settings can be changed in the file \fI~/.config/ranger/options.py\fR or on the
fly with the command \fB:set option value\fR.  Examples:
 :set column_ratios (1,2,3)
 :set show_hidden=True
.IP "autosave_bookmarks [bool]" 4
.IX Item "autosave_bookmarks [bool]"
Save bookmarks (used with mX and `X) instantly?  This helps to synchronize
bookmarks between multiple ranger instances but leads to *slight* performance
loss.  When false, bookmarks are saved when ranger is exited.
.IP "collapse_preview [bool] <zc>" 4
.IX Item "collapse_preview [bool] <zc>"
When no preview is visible, should the last column be squeezed to make use of
the whitespace?
.IP "colorscheme_overlay [function, None]" 4
.IX Item "colorscheme_overlay [function, None]"
An overlay function for colorschemes.  See the default options.py for an
explanation and an example.

\&\fBdefault\fR, \fBdefault88\fR, \fBtexas\fR, \fBjungle\fR, \fBsnow\fR. Snow is monochrome,
texas and default88 use 88 colors.
.IP "column_ratios [tuple, list]" 4
.IX Item "column_ratios [tuple, list]"
How many columns are there, and what are their relative widths?  For example, a
value of (1, 1, 1) would mean 3 even sized columns. (1, 1, 1, 1, 4) means 5 columns
with the preview column being as large as the other columns combined.

.IX Item "draw_borders [bool]"
Draw borders around columns?
.IP "flushinput [bool] <zi>" 4
.IX Item "flushinput [bool] <zi>"
Flush the input after each key hit?  One advantage is that when scrolling down
with \*(L"j\*(R", ranger stops scrolling instantly when you release the key.  One
disadvantage is that when you type commands blindly, some keys might get lost.
.IP "hidden_filter [regexp]" 4
.IX Item "hidden_filter [regexp]"
A regular expression pattern for files which should be hidden.
.IP "max_console_history_size [integer, None]" 4

.SH "COMMANDS"
.IX Header "COMMANDS"
You can enter the commands in the console which is opened by pressing \*(L":\*(R".
.PP
There are additional commands which are directly translated to python
functions, one for every method in the ranger.core.actions.Actions class.
They are not documented here, since they are mostly for key bindings, not to be
typed in by a user.  Read the source if you are interested in them.
.IP "bulkrename" 2
.IX Item "bulkrename"
This command opens a list of selected files in an external editor.  After you
edit and save the file, it will generate a shell script which does bulk
renaming according to the changes you did in the file.
.Sp
This shell script is opened in an editor for you to review.  After you close
it, it will be executed.
.IP "cd [\fIdirectory\fR]" 2
.IX Item "cd [directory]"
The cd command changes the directory.  The command \f(CW\*(C`:cd \-\*(C'\fR is equivalent to
typing ``.
.IP "chain \fIcommand1\fR[; \fIcommand2\fR[; \fIcommand3\fR...]]" 2
.IX Item "chain command1[; command2[; command3...]]"
Combines multiple commands into one, separated by columns.
.IP "chmod \fIoctal_number\fR" 2
.IX Item "chmod octal_number"
Sets the permissions of the selection to the octal number.
.Sp
The octal number is between 000 and 777. The digits specify the permissions for
the user, the group and others.  A 1 permits execution, a 2 permits writing, a
4 permits reading.  Add those numbers to combine them. So a 7 permits
everything.
.Sp
Key bindings in the form of [\-+]<who><what> and =<octal> also exist.  For
example, \fB+ar\fR allows reading for everyone, \-ow forbids others to write and
=777 allows everything.
.Sp
See also: man 1 chmod
.IP "cmap \fIkey\fR \fIcommand\fR" 2

.IP "copymap \fIkey\fR \fInewkey\fR [\fInewkey2\fR ...]" 2
.IX Item "copymap key newkey [newkey2 ...]"
Copies the keybinding \fIkey\fR to \fInewkey\fR in the \*(L"browser\*(R" context.  This is a
deep copy, so if you change the new binding (or parts of it) later, the old one
is not modified.
.Sp
To copy key bindings of the console, taskview, or pager use \*(L"copycmap\*(R",
\&\*(L"copytmap\*(R" or \*(L"copypmap\*(R".
.IP "copypmap \fIkey\fR \fInewkey\fR [\fInewkey2\fR ...]" 2

text, use the function `p'.  The result is displayed on the screen unless you
use the \*(L"\-q\*(R" option.
.Sp
Examples:

Unmark all files matching a regular expression pattern.
.SH "FILES"
.IX Header "FILES"
ranger reads several configuration files which are located in
\&\fI\f(CI$HOME\fI/.config/ranger\fR or \fI\f(CI$XDG_CONFIG_HOME\fI/ranger\fR if \f(CW$XDG_CONFIG_HOME\fR is
defined.  The configuration is done mostly in python.  When removing a
configuration file, remove its compiled version too.  (Python automatically
compiles modules.  Since python3 they are saved in the _\|_pycache_\|_ directory,
earlier versions store them with the .pyc extension in the same directory.)
.PP
Use the \-\-copy\-config option to obtain the default configuration files.  They
include further documentation and it's too much to put here.
.PP
You don't need to copy the whole file though, most configuration files are
overlaid on top of the defaults (\fIoptions.py\fR, \fIcommand.py\fR, \fIrc.conf\fR) or
can be sub-classed (\fIapps.py\fR, \fIcolorschemes\fR).
.PP
When starting ranger with the \fB\-\-clean\fR option, it will not access or create
any of these files.
.SS "\s-1CONFIGURATION\s0"
.IX Subsection "CONFIGURATION"
.IP "apps.py" 10
.IX Item "apps.py"
Controls which applications are used to open files.
.IP "commands.py" 10
.IX Item "commands.py"
Defines commands which can be used by typing \*(L":\*(R".
.IP "rc.conf" 10
.IX Item "rc.conf"
Contains a list of commands which are executed on startup.  Mostly key bindings
are defined here.
.IP "options.py" 10
.IX Item "options.py"
Sets a handful of basic options.
.IP "scope.sh" 10
.IX Item "scope.sh"
This is a script that handles file previews.  When the options
\&\fIuse_preview_script\fR and \fIpreview_files\fR or, respectively,
\&\fIpreview_directories\fR are set, the program specified in the option
\&\fIpreview_script\fR is run and its output and/or exit code determines rangers
reaction.
.IP "colorschemes/" 10
.IX Item "colorschemes/"
Colorschemes can be placed here.
.SS "\s-1STORAGE\s0"
.IX Subsection "STORAGE"
.IP "bookmarks" 10
.IX Item "bookmarks"
This file contains a list of bookmarks.  The syntax is /^(.):(.*)$/. The first
character is the bookmark key and the rest after the colon is the path to the
file.  In ranger, bookmarks can be set by typing m<key>, accessed by typing
\&'<key> and deleted by typing um<key>.
.IP "copy_buffer" 10
.IX Item "copy_buffer"
When running the command :save_copy_buffer, the paths of all currently copied
files are saved in this file.  You can later run :load_copy_buffer to copy the
same files again, pass them to another ranger instance or process them in a
script.
.IP "history" 10
.IX Item "history"
Contains a list of commands that have been previously typed in.
.IP "tagged" 10
.IX Item "tagged"
Contains a list of tagged files. The syntax is /^(.:)?(.*)$/ where the first
letter is the optional name of the tag and the rest after the optional colon is
the path to the file.  In ranger, tags can be set by pressing t and removed
with T.  To assign a named tag, type "<tagname>.
.SH "ENVIRONMENT"
.IX Header "ENVIRONMENT"
These environment variables have an effect on ranger:
.IP "\s-1EDITOR\s0" 8
.IX Item "EDITOR"
Defines the editor to be used for the \*(L"E\*(R" key.  Defaults to the first installed
program out of \*(L"vim\*(R", \*(L"emacs\*(R" and \*(L"nano\*(R".
.IP "\s-1SHELL\s0" 8
.IX Item "SHELL"
Defines the shell that ranger is going to use with the :shell command and
the \*(L"S\*(R" key.  Defaults to \*(L"bash\*(R".
.IP "\s-1TERMCMD\s0" 8
.IX Item "TERMCMD"
Defines the terminal emulator command that ranger is going to use with the
:terminal command and the \*(L"t\*(R" run flag.  Defaults to \*(L"x\-terminal-emulator\*(R" or
\&\*(L"xterm\*(R"
.IP "\s-1XDG_CONFIG_HOME\s0" 8
.IX Item "XDG_CONFIG_HOME"

.IP "\s-1PYTHONOPTIMIZE\s0" 8
.IX Item "PYTHONOPTIMIZE"
This variable determines the optimize level of python.
.Sp
Using PYTHONOPTIMIZE=1 (like python \-O) will make python discard assertion
statements.  You will gain efficiency at the cost of losing some debug info.
.Sp
Using PYTHONOPTIMIZE=2 (like python \-OO) will additionally discard any
docstrings.  Using this will disable the <F1> key on commands.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
