+<h1>+++DIRED HELP+++</h1>
+
+Lynx changes into Dired mode when you use a URL of the type
+<em>file://localhost/path/</em>.  While in Dired mode, some keys are
+remapped to do the following functions:
+<pre>
+
+        C)reate       - Create a new, empty file in the current
+                        directory.  You will be prompted to enter
+                        a name for the file.
+
+        F)ull menu    - Show a full menu of commands for currently
+                        selected file or directory.
+
+        M)odify       - Modify the name or location of selection.  If
+                        multiple files have been selected, you will
+                        only be able to change the location.  Choose
+                        between changing the name or location and then
+                        enter a new filename or path.
+
+        R)emove       - Delete currently selected files.
+
+        T)ag          - Tag the highlighted file.  Multiple files may
+                        be tagged and all other commands except "Create"
+                        will be performed on tagged files instead of the
+                        one highlighted.  Press '<em>t</em>' again to untag
+                        a file.
+
+        U)pload       - Upload a file to the current directory using
+                        one of the options listed in the upload screen.
+</pre>
+Some other keys useful in Dired mode:
+<pre>
+        D)ownload     - Download selection using options listed in
+                        the download options screen.
+
+        E)dit         - Spawn the editor defined in the <a
+                        href="option_help.html">Options Menu</a>
+                        and load selection for editing.
+</pre>
+
+<em>Note:</em> Dired mode must be activated at compile time.
+Otherwise, the above commands will not be available
+and Lynx will treat a directory listing as an HTML file.
