Written in rust.

```
FM : dired like file manager
Usage: fm [OPTIONS]
Options:
-p, --path <PATH> Starting path [default: .]
-s, --server <SERVER> Nvim server [default: ]
-h, --help Print help information
-V, --version Print version information
```
## Video
![fm](./fm.gif)
## Installation
```sh
cargo install fm-tui
```
## Usage
Start it from command line with no parameters :
```sh
fm
```
or with a path :
```sh
fm -p ~/Downloads
```
If you added the [recommanded function](#cd-on-quit) to your bashrc/zshrc, simply use `f` and you will cd to the last visited directory when exiting.
## Features
- Navigate with the arrows or the mouse (left select, right open, wheel)
- Open a file with o, enter or right click
- Execute a file with a custom command with e
- Copy / move / symlinks / delete with c, p, s, x
- Create files, directory, rename with n, d, r
- Open a new shell in this directory with s
- Flag a bunch of file, change panel with TAB and move/copy them !
- Many ways to jump somewhere :
- g: type the full address (with completion enabled),
- G: a predefined shortcut (default root folders, home and mount points),
- j: by jumping to a flagged file,
- ': by creating your own marks and jumping to them
- Change display, removing details or displaying a single pane.
- Preview most of files (text, highlighted code, binary, pdf, exif details, video/audio details, archives) with P
- Decompress an archive with Ctrl+x
- Copy a filename/filepath to clipboard with Ctrl+n, Ctrl+p
- Rename a bunch of file with B. Flag files, B, edit the names and save the file. The renaming is done.
- Use the integrated fuzzy finder (forked version of skim, an fzf clone) with Ctrl+f to navigate quickly
- Filter the view (by extension, name, directory only, all files) with F
- Find files with / (with completion), flag files matching a regex with w
- Detect removable disks automatically and jump to them in a few keystrokes (G, up, enter)
Most of those features are inspired by ranger and alternatives (Midnight commander), the look and feel by dired.
## Neovim filepicker
When you open a file with i, it will send an event to Neovim and open it in a new buffer.
Recent versions of neovim export the RPC server address to an environement variable which is read if no argument
is provided.
It should always work, even outside of neovim.
It's also possible to pass the RPC server address with `fm -s address`.
This feature requires `nvim-send` to be installed (`cargo install nvim-send`)
## cd on quit
When leaving fm, it prints the last visited path.
If you add this function to your `zshrc` / `bashrc`, it will listen to stdout and cd to the last dir.
```bash
function f() {
# start the fm filemanager, enabling cd on quit.
dest=$(fm $@)
if [[ ! -z $dest ]]
then
cd $dest
fi
}
```
## Default keybindings
Press `h` by default to display the help.
Your current keybindings are shown. Here are the default ones.
```
fm: a dired like file manager. Keybindings.

Right: cd to child directory
Up: one line up
Down: one line down
Home: go to first line
End: go to last line
PageUp: 10 lines up
PageDown: 10 lines down
Tab: cycle tab
- Actions -
Char('D'): toggle dual pane - if the width is sufficiant
Char('a'): toggle hidden
Char('s'): shell in current directory
Char('o'): open the selected file
Char('i'): open in current nvim session
Char('P'): preview this file
Char('T'): display a thumbnail of an image
Char('-'): move back to previous dir
Char('~'): move to $HOME
Char('M'): mark current path
Char('\''): jump to a mark
Ctrl('e'): toggle metadata on files
Ctrl('f'): fuzzy finder
Ctrl('r'): refresh view
Ctrl('c'): copy filename to clipboard
Ctrl('p'): copy filepath to clipboard
Alt('d'): dragon-drop selected file
- Action on flagged files -
Char(' '): toggle flag on a file
Char('*'): flag all
Char('u'): clear flags
Char('v'): reverse flags

Char('/'): SEARCH
Char('F'): FILTER
(by name "n name", by ext "e ext", only directories d or all for reset)
```
## Configuration
Every configuration file is saved in `~/.config/fm/`
You can configure :
- **Colors** for non standard file types (directory, socket, char device, block device)
- **Keybindings**. Some should be left as they are, but all keybindings can be configured.
use the provided config file as a default.
Multiple keys can be bound the the same action.
- **Openers**. fm tries to be smart and open some files with a standard program.
You can change that and use whatever installed program you want. Specify if it
requires a shell to be run (like neovim) or not (like subl).
- **Marks**. Users can save about 100 differents marks to jump to, they're saved
in your marks.config file. It's easier to let fm manage your marks, but if
you made a mess or want to start over, simply delete the file or a single line.
## Contribution
Any help is appreciated.
I comment everything I do in [dev.md](development.md).
It's my first "published" program, so don't get upset by the code quality.
