4. File Operations
4.1. Destructive Operations
4.2. The Selection
4.3. Copying and Pasting
==============================================================================
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 WITHOUT CONFIRMATION
:rename <newname> Change the name of the current file
pp, 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
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.
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.
