- - -NAME - vifm - vi file manager - -SYNOPSIS - vifm [OPTION]... - vifm [OPTION]... path - vifm [OPTION]... path path - -DESCRIPTION - Vifm is an ncurses based file manager with vi like keybindings. If you - use vi, vifm gives you complete keyboard control over your files with- - out having to learn a new set of commands. - -OPTIONS - vifm starts in the current directory unless it is given a different di- - rectory on the command line or 'vifminfo' option includes "savedirs" - (in which case last visited directories are used as defaults). - - - Read list of files from standard input stream and compose custom - view out of them (see "Custom views" section). Current working - directory is used as a base for relative paths. - - <path> Starts Vifm in the specified path. - - <path> <path> - Starts Vifm in the specified paths. - - Specifying two directories triggers split view even when vifm was in - single-view mode on finishing previous session. To suppress this be- - haviour :only command can be put in the vifmrc file. - - When only one path argument is found on command-line, the left/top pane - is automatically set as the current view. - - Paths to files are also allowed in case you want vifm to start with - some archive opened. - - --select <path> - Open parent directory of the given path and select specified - file in it. - - -f Makes vifm instead of opening files write selection to - $VIFM/vimfiles and quit. - - --choose-files <path>|- - Sets output file to write selection into on exit instead of - opening files. "-" means standard output. Use empty value to - disable it. - - --choose-dir <path>|- - Sets output file to write last visited directory into on exit. - "-" means standard output. Use empty value to disable it. - - --delimiter <delimiter> - Sets separator for list of file paths written out by vifm. - Empty value means null character. Default is new line charac- - ter. - - --on-choose <command> - Sets command to be executed on selected files instead of opening - them. The command may use any of macros described in "Command - macros" section below. The command is executed once for whole - selection. - - --logging[=<startup log path>] - Log some operational details $VIFM/log. If the optional startup - log path is specified and permissions allow to open it for writ- - ing, then logging of early initialization (before value of $VIFM - is determined) is put there. - - --server-list - List available server names and exit. - - --server-name <name> - Name of target or this instance (sequential numbers are appended - on name conflict). - - --remote - Sends the rest of the command line to another instance of vifm, - --server-name is treated just like any other argument and should - precede --remote on the command line. When there is no server, - quits silently. There is no limit on how many arguments can be - processed. One can combine --remote with -c <command> or +<com- - mand> to execute commands in already running instance of vifm. - See also "Client-Server" section below. - - --remote-expr - passes expression to vifm server and prints result. See also - "Client-Server" section below. - - -c <command> or +<command> - Run command-line mode <command> on startup. Commands in such - arguments are executed in the order they appear in command line. - Commands with spaces or special symbols must be enclosed in dou- - ble or single quotes or all special symbols should be escaped - (the exact syntax strongly depends on shell). "+" argument is - equivalent to "$" and thus picks last item of of the view. - - --help, -h - Show a brief command summary and exit vifm. - - --version, -v - Show version information and quit. - - --no-configs - Skip reading vifmrc and vifminfo. - - - See "Startup" section below for the explanations on $VIFM. - -General keys - Ctrl-C or Escape - cancel most operations (see "Cancellation" section below), clear - all selected files. - - Ctrl-L clear and redraw the screen. - -Basic Movement - The basic vi key bindings are used to move through the files and pop-up - windows. - - k, gk, or Ctrl-P - move cursor up one line. - - j, gj or Ctrl-N - move cursor down one line. - - h when 'lsview' is off move up one directory (moves to parent di- - rectory node in tree view), otherwise move left one file. - - l when 'lsview' is off move into a directory or launches a file, - otherwise move right one file. - - gg move to the first line of the file list. - - G move to the last line in the file list. - - gh go up one directory regardless of view representation (regular, - ls-like). Also can be used to leave custom views including tree - view. - - gl or Enter - enter directory or launch a file. - - H move to the first file in the window. - - M move to the file in the middle of the window. - - L move to the last file in the window. - - Ctrl-F or Page Down - move forward one page. - - Ctrl-B or Page Up - move back one page. - - Ctrl-D jump back one half page. - - Ctrl-U jump forward one half page. - - n% move to the file that is n percent from the top of the list (for - example 25%). - - 0 or ^ move cursor to the first column. See 'lsview' option descrip- - tion. - - $ move cursor to the last column. See 'lsview' option descrip- - tion. - - Space switch file lists. - - gt switch to the next tab (wrapping around). - - {n}gt switch to the tab number {n} (wrapping around). - - gT switch to the previous tab (wrapping around). - - {n}gT switch to {n}-th previous tab. - -Movement with Count - Most movement commands also accept a count, 12j would move down 12 - files. - - [count]% - move to percent of the file list. - - [count]j - move down [count] files. - - [count]k - move up [count] files. - - [count]G or [count]gg - move to list position [count]. - - [count]h - go up [count] directories. - -Scrolling panes - zt redraw pane with file in top of list. - - zz redraw pane with file in center of list. - - zb redraw pane with file in bottom of list. - - Ctrl-E scroll pane one line down. - - Ctrl-Y scroll pane one line up. - -Pane manipulation - Second character can be entered with or without Control key. - - Ctrl-W H - move the pane to the far left. - - Ctrl-W J - move the pane to the very bottom. - - Ctrl-W K - move the pane to the very top. - - Ctrl-W L - move the pane to the far right. - - - Ctrl-W h - switch to the left pane. - - Ctrl-W j - switch to the pane below. - - Ctrl-W k - switch to the pane above. - - Ctrl-W l - switch to the right pane. - - - Ctrl-W b - switch to bottom-right window. - - Ctrl-W t - switch to top-left window. - - - Ctrl-W p - switch to previous window. - - Ctrl-W w - switch to other pane. - - - Ctrl-W o - leave only one pane. - - Ctrl-W s - split window horizontally. - - Ctrl-W v - split window vertically. - - - Ctrl-W x - exchange panes. - - Ctrl-W z - quit preview pane or view modes. - - - Ctrl-W - - decrease size of the view by count. - - Ctrl-W + - increase size of the view by count. - - Ctrl-W < - decrease size of the view by count. - - Ctrl-W > - increase size of the view by count. - - - Ctrl-W | - set current view size to count. - - Ctrl-W _ - set current view size to count. - - Ctrl-W = - make size of two views equal. - - For Ctrl-W +, Ctrl-W -, Ctrl-W <, Ctrl-W >, Ctrl-W | and Ctrl-W _ com- - mands count can be given before and/or after Ctrl-W. The resulting - count is a multiplication of those two. So "2 Ctrl-W 2 -" decreases - window size by 4 lines or columns. - - Ctrl-W | and Ctrl-W _ maximise current view by default. - -Marks - Marks are set the same way as they are in vi. - - You can use these characters for marks [a-z][A-Z][0-9]. - - m[a-z][A-Z][0-9] - set a mark for the file at the current cursor position. - - '[a-z][A-Z][0-9] - navigate to the file set for the mark. - - - There are also several special marks that can't be set manually: - - - ' (single quote) - previously visited directory of the view, thus - hitting '' allows switching between two last locations - - - < - the first file of the last visually selected block - - - > - the last file of the last visually selected block - -Searching - /regular expression pattern - search for files matching regular expression in forward direc- - tion and advance cursor to next match. - - / perform forward search with top item of search pattern history. - - ?regular expression pattern - search for files matching regular expression in backward direc- - tion and advance cursor to previous match. - - ? perform backward search with top item of search pattern history. - - Trailing slash for directories is taken into account, so /\/ searches - for directories and symbolic links to directories. At the moment // - works too, but this can change in the future, so consider escaping the - slash if not typing pattern by hand. - - Matches are automatically selected if 'hlsearch' is set. Enabling - 'incsearch' makes search interactive. 'ignorecase' and 'smartcase' op- - tions affect case sensitivity of search queries. - - - [count]n - go to the next file matching last search pattern. Takes last - search direction into account. - - [count]N - go to the previous file matching last search pattern. Takes - last search direction into account. - - If 'hlsearch' option is set, hitting n/N to perform search and go to - the first matching item resets current selection in normal mode. It is - not the case if search was already performed on files in the directory, - thus selection is not reset after clearing selection with escape key - and hitting n/N key again. - - Note: vifm uses extended regular expressions for / and ?. - - - [count]f[character] - search forward for file with [character] as first character in - name. Search wraps around the end of the list. - - [count]F[character] - search backward for file with [character] as first character in - name. Search wraps around the end of the list. - - [count]; - find the next match of f or F. - - [count], - find the previous match of f or F. - - Note: f, F, ; and , wrap around list beginning and end when they are - used alone and they don't wrap when they are used as selectors. - -File Filters - There are three basic file filters: - - - dot files filter (does not affect "." and ".." special directories, - whose appearance is controlled by the 'dotdirs' option), see 'dot- - files' option; - - - permanent filter; - - - local filter (see description of the "=" normal mode command). - - Permanent filter essentially allows defining a group of files names - which are not desirable to be seen by default, like temporary or backup - files, which might be created alongside normal ones. Just like you - don't usually need to see hidden dot files (files starting with a dot). - Local filter on the other hand is for temporary immediate filtering of - file list at hand, to get rid of uninterested files in the view or to - make it possible to use % range in a :command. - - For the purposes of more deterministic editing permanent filter is - split into two parts: - - - one edited explicitly via :filter command; - - - another one which is edited implicitly via zf shortcut. - - Files are tested against both parts and a match counts if at least one - of the parts matched. - - - Each file list has its own copy of each filter. - - Filtered files are not checked in / search or :commands. - - Files and directories are filtered separately. This is done by append- - ing a slash to a directory name before testing whether it matches the - filter. Examples: - - - " filter directories which names end with '.files' - :filter /^.*\.files\/$/ - - " filter files which names end with '.d' - :filter {*.d} - - " filter files and directories which names end with '.o' - :filter /^.*\.o\/?$/ - - Note: vifm uses extended regular expressions. - - The basic vim folding key bindings are used for managing filters. - - - za toggle visibility of dot files. - - zo show dot files. - - zm hide dot files. - - zf add selected files to permanent filter. - - zO reset permanent filter. - - zR save and reset all filters. - - zr clear local filter. - - zM restore all filters (undoes last zR). - - zd exclude selection or current file from a custom view. Does - nothing for regular view. For tree view excluding directory ex- - cludes that sub-tree. For compare views zd hides group of adja- - cent identical files, count can be specified as 1 to exclude - just single file or selected items instead. Files excluded this - way are not counted as filtered out and can't be returned unless - view is reloaded. - - =regular expression pattern - filter out files that don't match regular expression. Whether - view is updated as regular expression is changed depends on the - value of the 'incsearch' option. This kind of filter is auto- - matically reset when directory is changed. - -Other Normal Mode Keys - [count]: - enter command line mode. [count] generates range. - - q: open external editor to prompt for command-line command. See - "Command line editing" section for details. - - q/ open external editor to prompt for search pattern to be searched - in forward direction. See "Command line editing" section for - details. - - q? open external editor to prompt for search pattern to be searched - in backward direction. See "Command line editing" section for - details. - - q= open external editor to prompt for filter pattern. See "Command - line editing" section for details. Unlike other q{x} commands - this one doesn't work in Visual mode. - - [count]!! and [count]!<selector> - enter command line mode with entered ! command. [count] modi- - fies range. - - Ctrl-O go backwards through directory history of current view. Nonex- - istent directories are automatically skipped. - - Ctrl-I if 'cpoptions' contains "t" flag, <tab> and <c-i> switch active - pane just like <space> does, otherwise it goes forward through - directory history of current view. Nonexistent directories are - automatically skipped. - - Ctrl-G create a window showing detailed information about the current - file. - - Shift-Tab - enters view mode (works only after activating view pane with - :view command). - - ga calculate directory size. Uses cached directory sizes when pos- - sible for better performance. As a special case calculating - size of ".." entry results in calculation of size of current di- - rectory. - - gA like ga, but force update. Ignores old values of directory - sizes. - - If file under cursor is selected, each selected item is processed, oth- - erwise only current file is updated. - - gf find link destination (like l with 'followlinks' off, but also - finds directories). - - gr only for MS-Windows - same as l key, but tries to run program with administrative - privileges. - - av go to visual mode into selection amending state preserving cur- - rent selection. - - gv go to visual mode restoring last selection. - - [reg]gs - when no register is specified, restore last t selection (similar - to what gv does for visual mode selection). If register is - present, then all files listed in that register and which are - visible in current view are selected. - - gu<selector> - make names of selected files lowercase. - - [count]guu and [count]gugu - make names of [count] files starting from the current one lower- - case. Without [count] only current file is affected. - - gU<selector> - make names of selected files uppercase. - - [count]gUU and [count]gUgU - make names of [count] files starting from the current one upper- - case. Without [count] only current file is affected. - - e explore file in the current pane. - - i handle file (even if it's an executable and 'runexec' option is - set). - - cw change word is used to rename a file or files. - - cW change WORD is used to change only name of file (without exten- - sion). - - cl change link target. - - co only for *nix - change file owner. - - cg only for *nix - change file group. - - [count]cp - change file attributes (permission on *nix and properties on - Windows). If [count] is specified, it's treated as numerical - argument for non-recursive `chmod` command (of the form - [0-7]{3,4}). - - [count]C - clone file [count] times. - - [count]dd or d[count]selector - move selected file or files to trash directory (if 'trash' op- - tion is set, otherwise delete). See "Trash directory" section - below. - - [count]DD or D[count]selector - like dd and d<selector>, but omitting trash directory (even when - 'trash' option is set). - - Y, [count]yy or y[count]selector - yank selected files. - - p copy yanked files to the current directory or move the files to - the current directory if they were deleted with dd or :d[elete] - or if the files were yanked from trash directory. See "Trash - directory" section below. - - P move the last yanked files. The advantage of using P instead of - d followed by p is that P moves files only once. This isn't im- - portant in case you're moving files in the same file system - where your home directory is, but using P to move files on some - other file system (or file systems, in case you want to move - files from fs1 to fs2 and your home is on fs3) can save your - time. - - al put symbolic links with absolute paths. - - rl put symbolic links with relative paths. - - t select or unselect (tag) the current file. - - u undo last change. - - Ctrl-R redo last change. - - dp in compare view of "ofboth grouppaths" kind, makes corresponding - entry of the other pane equal to the current one. The semantics - is as follows: - - nothing done for identical entries - - if file is missing in current view, its pair gets removed - - if file is missing or differs in other view, it's replaced - - file pairs are defined by matching relative paths - File removal obeys 'trash' option. When the option is enabled, - the operation can be undone/redone (although results won't be - visible automatically). - Unlike in Vim, this operation is performed on a single line - rather than a set of adjacent changes. - - do same as dp, but applies changes in the opposite direction. - - v or V enter visual mode, clears current selection. - - [count]Ctrl-A - increment first number in file name by [count] (1 by default). - - [count]Ctrl-X - decrement first number in file name by [count] (1 by default). - - ZQ same as :quit!. - - ZZ same as :quit. - - . repeat last command-line command (not normal mode command) of - this session (does nothing right after startup or :restart com- - mand). The command doesn't depend on command-line history and - can be used with completely disabled history. - - ( go to previous group. Groups are defined by primary sorting - key. For name and iname members of each group have same first - letter, for all other sorting keys vifm uses size, uid, ... - - ) go to next group. See ( key description above. - - { speeds up navigation to closest previous entry of the opposite - type by moving to the first file backwards when cursor is on a - directory and to the first directory backwards when cursor is on - a file. This is essentially a special case of ( that is locked - on "dirs". - - } same as {, but in forward direction. - - [c go to previous mismatched entry in directory comparison view or - do nothing. - - ]c go to next mismatched entry in directory comparison view or do - nothing. - - [d go to previous directory entry or do nothing. - - ]d go to next directory entry or do nothing. - - [r same as :siblprev. - - ]r same as :siblnext. - - [R same as :siblprev!. - - ]R same as :siblnext!. - - [s go to previous selected entry or do nothing. - - ]s go to next selected entry or do nothing. - - [z go to first sibling of current entry. - - ]z go to last sibling of current entry. - - zj go to next directory sibling of current entry or do nothing. - - zk go to previous directory sibling of current entry or do nothing. - -Using Count - You can use count with commands like yy. - - [count]yy - yank count files starting from current cursor position downward. - - Or you can use count with motions passed to y, d or D. - - d[count]j - delete (count + 1) files starting from current cursor position - upward. - -Registers - vifm supports multiple registers for temporary storing list of yanked - or deleted files. - - Registers should be specified by hitting double quote key followed by a - register name. Count is specified after register name. By default - commands use unnamed register, which has double quote as its name. - - Though all commands accept registers, most of commands ignores them - (for example H or Ctrl-U). Other commands can fill register or append - new files to it. - - Presently vifm supports ", _, a-z and A-Z characters as register names. - - As mentioned above " is unnamed register and has special meaning of the - default register. Every time when you use named registers (a-z and A- - Z) unnamed register is updated to contain same list of files as the - last used register. - - _ is black hole register. It can be used for writing, but its list is - always empty. - - Registers with names from a to z and from A to Z are named ones. Low- - ercase registers are cleared before adding new files, while uppercase - aren't and should be used to append new files to the existing file list - of appropriate lowercase register (A for a, B for b, ...). - - Registers can be changed on :empty command if they contain files under - trash directory (see "Trash directory" section below). - - Registers do not contain one file more than once. - - Example: - - "a2yy - - puts names of two files to register a (and to the unnamed register), - - "Ad - - removes one file and append its name to register a (and to the unnamed - register), - - p or "ap or "Ap - - inserts previously yanked and deleted files into current directory. - -Selectors - y, d, D, !, gu and gU commands accept selectors. You can combine them - with any of selectors below to quickly remove or yank several files. - - Most of selectors are like vi motions: j, k, gg, G, H, L, M, %, f, F, - ;, comma, ', ^, 0 and $. But there are some additional ones. - - a all files in current view. - - s selected files. - - S all files except selected. - - Examples: - - - dj - delete file under cursor and one below; - - - d2j - delete file under cursor and two below; - - - y6gg - yank all files from cursor position to 6th file in the list. - - When you pass a count to whole command and its selector they are multi- - plied. So: - - - 2d2j - delete file under cursor and four below; - - - 2dj - delete file under cursor and two below; - - - 2y6gg - yank all files from cursor position to 12th file in the - list. - -Visual Mode - Visual mode has to generic operating submodes: - - - plain selection as it is in Vim; - - - selection editing submode. - - Both modes select files in range from cursor position at which visual - mode was entered to current cursor position (let's call it "selection - region"). Each of two borders can be adjusted by swapping them via "o" - or "O" keys and updating cursor position with regular cursor motion - keys. Obviously, once initial cursor position is altered this way, - real start position becomes unavailable. - - Plain Vim-like visual mode starts with cleared selection, which is not - restored on rejecting selection ("Escape", "Ctrl-C", "v", "V"). Con- - trary to it, selection editing doesn't clear previously selected files - and restores them after reject. Accepting selection by performing an - operation on selected items (e.g. yanking them via "y") moves cursor to - the top of current selection region (not to the top most selected file - of the view). - - In turn, selection editing supports three types of editing (look at - statusbar to know which one is currently active): - - - append - amend selection by selecting elements in selection region; - - - remove - amend selection by deselecting elements in selection re- - gion; - - - invert - amend selection by inverting selection of elements in se- - lection region. - - No matter how you activate selection editing it starts in "append". - One can switch type of operation (in the order given above) via "Ctrl- - G" key. - - Almost all normal mode keys work in visual mode, but instead of accept- - ing selectors they operate on selected items. - - Enter save selection and go back to normal mode not moving cursor. - - av leave visual mode if in amending mode (restores previous selec- - tion), otherwise switch to amending selection mode. - - gv restore previous visual selection. - - v, V, Ctrl-C or Escape - leave visual mode if not in amending mode, otherwise switch to - normal visual selection. - - Ctrl-G switch type of amending by round robin scheme: append -> remove - -> invert. - - : enter command line mode. Selection is cleared on leaving the - mode. - - o switch active selection bound. - - O switch active selection bound. - - gu, u make names of selected files lowercase. - - gU, U make names of selected files uppercase. - -View Mode - This mode tries to imitate the less program. List of builtin shortcuts - can be found below. Shortcuts can be customized using :qmap, :qnoremap - and :qunmap command-line commands. - - Shift-Tab, Tab, q, Q, ZZ - return to normal mode. - - [count]e, [count]Ctrl-E, [count]j, [count]Ctrl-N, [count]Enter - scroll forward one line (or [count] lines). - - [count]y, [count]Ctrl-Y, [count]k, [count]Ctrl-K, [count]Ctrl-P - scroll backward one line (or [count] lines). - - [count]f, [count]Ctrl-F, [count]Ctrl-V, [count]Space - scroll forward one window (or [count] lines). - - [count]b, [count]Ctrl-B, [count]Alt-V - scroll backward one window (or [count] lines). - - [count]z - scroll forward one window (and set window to [count]). - - [count]w - scroll backward one window (and set window to [count]). - - [count]Alt-Space - scroll forward one window, but don't stop at end-of-file. - - [count]d, [count]Ctrl-D - scroll forward one half-window (and set half-window to [count]). - - [count]u, [count]Ctrl-U - scroll backward one half-window (and set half-window to - [count]). - - r, Ctrl-R, Ctrl-L - repaint screen. - - R reload view preserving scroll position. - - F toggle automatic forwarding. Roughly equivalent to periodic - file reload and scrolling to the bottom. The behaviour is simi- - lar to `tail -F` or F key in less. - - [count]/pattern - search forward for ([count]-th) matching line. - - [count]?pattern - search backward for ([count]-th) matching line. - - [count]n - repeat previous search (for [count]-th occurrence). - - [count]N - repeat previous search in reverse direction (for [count]-th oc- - currence). - - [count]g, [count]<, [count]Alt-< - scroll to the first line of the file (or line [count]). - - [count]G, [count]>, [count]Alt-> - scroll to the last line of the file (or line [count]). - - [count]p, [count]% - scroll to the beginning of the file (or N percent into file). - - v invoke an editor to edit the current file being viewed. The - command for editing is taken from the 'vicmd'/'vixcmd' option - value and extended with middle line number prepended by a plus - sign and name of the current file. - - All "Ctrl-W x" keys work the same was as in Normal mode. Active mode - is automatically changed on navigating among windows. When less-like - mode activated on file preview is left using one by "Ctrl-W x" keys, - its state is stored until another file is displayed using preview (it's - possible to leave the mode, hide preview pane, do something else, then - get back to the file and show preview pane again with previously stored - state in it). - -Command line Mode - These keys are available in all submodes of the command line mode: com- - mand, search, prompt and filtering. - - Down, Up, Left, Right, Home, End and Delete are extended keys and they - are not available if vifm is compiled with --disable-extended-keys op- - tion. - - Esc, Ctrl-C - leave command line mode, cancels input. Cancelled input is - saved into appropriate history and can be recalled later. - - Ctrl-M, Enter - execute command and leave command line mode. - - Ctrl-I, Tab - complete command or its argument. - - Shift-Tab - complete in reverse order. - - Ctrl-_ stop completion and return original input. - - Ctrl-B, Left - move cursor to the left. - - Ctrl-F, Right - move cursor to the right. - - Ctrl-A, Home - go to line beginning. - - Ctrl-E, End - go to line end. - - Alt-B go to the beginning of previous word. - - Alt-F go to the end of next word. - - Ctrl-U remove characters from cursor position till the beginning of - line. - - Ctrl-K remove characters from cursor position till the end of line. - - Ctrl-H, Backspace - remove character before the cursor. - - Ctrl-D, Delete - remove character under the cursor. - - Ctrl-W remove characters from cursor position till the beginning of - previous word. - - Alt-D remove characters from cursor position till the beginning of - next word. - - Ctrl-T swap the order of current and previous character and move cursor - forward or, if cursor past the end of line, swap the order of - two last characters in the line. - - Alt-. insert last part of previous command to current cursor position. - Each next call will insert last part of older command. - - Ctrl-G edit command-line content in external editor. See "Command line - editing" section for details. - - Ctrl-N recall more recent command-line from history. - - Ctrl-P recall older command-line from history. - - Up recall more recent command-line from history, that begins as the - current command-line. - - Down recall older command-line from history, that begins as the cur- - rent command-line. - - Ctrl-] trigger abbreviation expansion. - -Pasting special values - The shortcuts listed below insert specified values into current cursor - position. Last key of every shortcut references value that it inserts: - - c - [c]urrent file - - d - [d]irectory path - - e - [e]xtension of a file name - - r - [r]oot part of a file name - - t - [t]ail part of directory path - - - a - [a]utomatic filter - - m - [m]anual filter - - = - local filter, which is bound to "=" in normal mode - - Values related to filelist in current pane are available through Ctrl-X - prefix, while values from the other pane have doubled Ctrl-X key as - their prefix (doubled Ctrl-X is presumably easier to type than upper- - case letters; it's still easy to remap the keys to correspond to names - of similar macros). - - Ctrl-X c - name of the current file of the active pane. - - Ctrl-X d - path to the current directory of the active pane. - - Ctrl-X e - extension of the current file of the active pane. - - Ctrl-X r - name root of current file of the active pane. - - Ctrl-X t - the last component of path to the current directory of the ac- - tive pane. - - Ctrl-X Ctrl-X c - name of the current file of the inactive pane. - - Ctrl-X Ctrl-X d - path to the current directory of the inactive pane. - - Ctrl-X Ctrl-X e - extension of the current file of the inactive pane. - - Ctrl-X Ctrl-X r - name root of current file of the inactive pane. - - Ctrl-X Ctrl-X t - the last component of path to the current directory of the inac- - tive pane. - - - Ctrl-X a - value of implicit permanent filter (old name "automatic") of the - active pane. - - Ctrl-X m - value of explicit permanent filter (old name "manual") of the - active pane. - - Ctrl-X = - value of local filter of the active pane. - - - Ctrl-X / - last pattern from search history. - -Command line editing - vifm provides a facility to edit several kinds of data, that is usually - edited in command-line mode, in external editor (using command speci- - fied by 'vicmd' or 'vixcmd' option). This has at least two advantages - over built-in command-line mode: - - one can use full power of Vim to edit text; - - finding and reusing history entries becomes possible. - - The facility is supported by four input submodes of the command-line: - - command; - - forward search; - - backward search; - - file rename (see description of cw and cW normal mode keys). - - Editing command-line using external editor is activated by the Ctrl-G - shortcut. It's also possible to do almost the same from Normal and - Visual modes using q:, q/ and q? commands. - - Temporary file created for the purpose of editing the line has the fol- - lowing structure: - - 1. First line, which is either empty or contains text already entered - in command-line. - - 2. 2nd and all other lines with history items starting with the most - recent one. Altering this lines in any way won't change history - items stored by vifm. - - After editing application is finished the first line of the file is - taken as the result of operation, when the application returns zero - exit code. If the application returns an error (see :cquit command in - Vim), all the edits made to the file are ignored, but the initial value - of the first line is saved in appropriate history. - -More Mode - This is the mode that appears when status bar content is so big that it - doesn't fit on the screen. One can identify the mode by "-- More --" - message at the bottom. - - The following keys are handled in this mode: - - - Enter, Ctrl-J, j or Down - scroll one line down. - - Backspace, k or Up - scroll one line up. - - - d scroll one page (half of a screen) down. - - u scroll one page (half of a screen) up. - - - Space, f or PageDown - scroll down a screen. - - b or PageUp - scroll up a screen. - - - G scroll to the bottom. - - g scroll to the top. - - - q, Escape or Ctrl-C - quit the mode. - - : switch to command-line mode. - -Commands - Commands are executed with :command_name<Enter> - - Commented out lines should start with the double quote symbol ("), - which may be preceded by whitespace characters intermixed with colons. - Inline comments can be added at the end of the line after double quote - symbol, only last line of a multi-line command can contain such com- - ment. Not all commands support inline comments as their syntax con- - flicts with names of registers and fields where double quotes are al- - lowed. - - Most of the commands have two forms: complete and the short one. Exam- - ple: - - :noh[lsearch] - - This means the complete command is nohlsearch, and the short one is - noh. - - Most of command-line commands completely reset selection in the current - view. However, there are several exceptions: - - - `:invert s` most likely leaves some files selected; - - - :normal command (when it doesn't leave command-line mode); - - - :if and :else commands don't affect selection on successful execu- - tion. - - '|' can be used to separate commands, so you can give multiple commands - in one line. If you want to use '|' in an argument, precede it with - '\'. - - These commands see '|' as part of their arguments even when it's es- - caped: - - :[range]! - :autocmd - :cabbrev - :cmap - :cnoreabbrev - :cnoremap - :command - :dmap - :dnoremap - :filetype - :fileviewer - :filextype - :map - :mmap - :mnoremap - :nmap - :nnoremap - :noremap - :normal - :qmap - :qnoremap - :vmap - :vnoremap - :wincmd - :windo - :winrun - - To be able to use another command after one of these, wrap it with the - :execute command. An example: - - if filetype('.') == 'reg' | execute '!!echo regular file' | endif - - :[count] - - :number - move to the file number. - :12 would move to the 12th file in the list. - :0 move to the top of the list. - :$ move to the bottom of the list. - - :[count]command - The only builtin :[count]command are :[count]d[elete] and - :[count]y[ank]. - - :d3 would delete three files starting at the current file position - moving down. - - :3d would delete one file at the third line in the list. - - :command [args] - - :[range]!program - execute command via shell. Accepts macros. - - :[range]!command & - - same as above, but the command is run in the background using vifm's - means. - - Programs that write to stdout like "ls" create an error message showing - partial output of the command. - - Note the space before ampersand symbol, if you omit it, command will be - run in the background using job control of your shell. - - Accepts macros. - - :!! - - :[range]!!command - same as :!, but pauses before returning. - - :!! repeat the last command. - - :alink - - :[range]alink[!?] - create absolute symbolic links to files in directory of inactive - view. With "?" prompts for destination file names in an edi- - tor. "!" forces overwrite. - - :[range]alink[!] path - create absolute symbolic links to files in directory specified - by the path (absolute or relative to directory of inactive - view). - - :[range]alink[!] name1 name2... - create absolute symbolic links of files in directory of other - view giving each next link a corresponding name from the argu- - ment list. - - :apropos - - :apropos keyword... - create a menu of items returned by the apropos command. Select- - ing an item in the menu opens corresponding man page. By de- - fault the command relies on the external "apropos" utility, - which can be customized by altering value of the 'aproposprg' - option. - - :autocmd - - :au[tocmd] {event} {pat} {cmd} - register autocommand for the {event}, which can be: - - DirEnter - triggered after directory is changed - Event name is case insensitive. - - {pat} is a comma-separated list of modified globs patterns, - which can contain tilde or environment variables. All paths use - slash ('/') as directory separator. The pattern can start with - a '!', which negates it. Patterns that do not contain slashes - are matched against the last item of the path only (e.g. "dir" - in "/path/dir"). Literal comma can be entered by doubling it. - Two modifications to globs matching are as follows: - - * - never matches a slash (i.e., can signify single direc- - tory level) - - ** - matches any character (i.e., can match path of arbi- - trary depth) - - {cmd} is a :command or several of them separated with '|'. - - Examples of patterns: - - conf.d - matches conf.d directory anywhere - - *.d - matches directories ending with ".d" anywhere - - **.git - matches something.git, but not .git anywhere - - **/.git/** - matches /path/.git/objects, but not /path/.git - - **/.git/**/ - matches /path/.git/ only (because of trailing - slash) - - /etc/* - matches /etc/conf.d/, /etc/X11, but not - /etc/X11/fs - - /etc/**/*.d - matches /etc/conf.d, /etc/X11/conf.d, etc. - - /etc/**/* - matches /etc/ itself and any file below it - - /etc/**/** - matches /etc/ itself and any file below it - - :au[tocmd] [{event}] [{pat}] - list those autocommands that match given event-pattern combina- - tion. - {event} and {pat} can be omitted to list all autocommands. To - list any autocommands for specific pattern one can use * place- - holder in place of {event}. - - :au[tocmd]! [{event}] [{pat}] - remove autocommands that match given event-pattern combination. - Syntax is the same as for listing above. - - :apropos - repeat last :apropos command. - - :bmark - - :bmark tag1 [tag2 [tag3...]] - bookmark current directory with specified tags. - - :bmark! path tag1 [tag2 [tag3...]] - same as :bmark, but allows bookmarking specific path instead of - current directory. This is for use in vifmrc and for bookmark- - ing files. - - Path can contain macros that expand to single path (%c, %C, %d, - %D) or those that can expand to multiple paths, but contain only - one (%f, %F, %rx). The latter is done for convenience on using - the command interactively. Complex macros that include spaces - (e.g. "%c:gs/ /_") should be escaped. - - :bmarks - - :bmarks - display all bookmarks in a menu. - - :bmarks [tag1 [tag2...]] - display menu of bookmarks that include all of the specified - tags. - - :bmgo - - :bmgo [tag1 [tag2...]] - when there are more than one match acts exactly like :bmarks, - otherwise navigates to single match immediately (and fails if - there is no match). - - :cabbrev - - :ca[bbrev] - display menu of command-line mode abbreviations. - - :ca[bbrev] lhs-prefix - display command-line mode abbreviations which left-hand side - starts with specified prefix. - - :ca[bbrev] lhs rhs - register new or overwrites existing abbreviation for command- - line mode. rhs can contain spaces and any special sequences ac- - cepted in rhs of mappings (see "Mappings" section below). Ab- - breviations are expanded non-recursively. - - :cnoreabbrev - - :cnorea[bbrev] - display menu of command-line mode abbreviations. - - :cnorea[bbrev] lhs-prefix - display command-line mode abbreviations which left-hand side - starts with specified prefix. - - :cnorea[bbrev] lhs rhs - same as :cabbrev, but mappings in rhs are ignored during expan- - sion. - - :cd - - :cd or :cd ~ or :cd $HOME - change to home directory. - - :cd - go to the last visited directory. - - :cd ~/dir - change directory to ~/dir. - - :cd /curr/dir /other/dir - change directory of the current pane to /curr/dir and directory - of the other pane to /other/dir. Relative paths are assumed to - be relative to directory of current view. Command won't fail if - one of directories is invalid. All forms of the command accept - macros. - - :cd! /dir - same as :cd /dir /dir. - - :cds - - :cds[!] pattern string - navigate to path obtained by substituting first match in current - path. Arguments can include slashes, but starting first argu- - ment with a separator will activate below form of the command. - Specifying "!" changes directory of both panes. - - Available flags: - - - i - ignore case (the 'ignorecase' and 'smartcase' options are not - used) - - - I - don't ignore case (the 'ignorecase' and 'smartcase' options are - not used) - - :cds[!]/pattern/string/[flags] - same as above, but with :substitute-like syntax. Other punctua- - tion characters can be used as separators. - - :change - - :c[hange] - create a menu window to alter a files properties. - - :chmod - - :[range]chmod - display file attributes (permission on *nix and properties on - Windows) change dialog. - - :[range]chmod[!] arg... - only for *nix - change permissions for files. See `man 1 chmod` for arg format. - "!" means set permissions recursively. - - :chown - - :[range]chown - only for *nix - same as co key in normal mode. - - :[range]chown [user][:][group] - only for *nix - change owner and/or group of files. Operates on directories re- - cursively. - - :clone - - :[range]clone[!?] - clones files in current directory. With "?" vifm will open vi - to edit file names. "!" forces overwrite. Macros are expanded. - - :[range]clone[!] path - clones files to directory specified with the path (absolute or - relative to current directory). "!" forces overwrite. Macros - are expanded. - - :[range]clone[!] name1 name2... - clones files in current directory giving each next clone a cor- - responding name from the argument list. "!" forces overwrite. - Macros are expanded. - - :colorscheme - - :colo[rscheme]? - print current color scheme name on the status bar. - - :colo[rscheme] - display a menu with a list of available color schemes. You can - choose primary color scheme here. It is used for view if no di- - rectory specific colorscheme fits current path. It's also used - to set border color (except view titles) and colors in menus and - dialogs. - - :colo[rscheme] color_scheme_name - change primary color scheme to color_scheme_name. In case of - errors (e.g. some colors are not supported by terminal) either - nothing is changed or color scheme is reset to builtin colors to - ensure that TUI is left in a usable state. - - :colo[rscheme] color_scheme_name directory - associate directory with the color scheme. The directory argu- - ment can be either absolute or relative path when :colorscheme - command is executed from command line, but mandatory should be - an absolute path when the command is executed in scripts loaded - at startup (until vifm is completely loaded). - - :colo[rscheme] color_scheme_name color_scheme_name... - loads the first color scheme in the order given that exists and - is supported by the terminal. If none matches, current one re- - mains unchanged. For example: - - " use a separate color scheme for panes which are inside FUSE mounts - execute 'colorscheme in-fuse' &fusehome - - :comclear - - :comc[lear] - remove all user defined commands. - - :command - - :com[mand] - display a menu of user commands. - - :com[mand] beginning - display user defined commands that start with the beginning. - - :com[mand] name action - set a new user command. - Trying to use a reserved command name will result in an error - message. - Use :com[mand]! to overwrite a previously set command. - Unlike vim user commands do not have to start with a capital - letter. User commands are run in a shell by default. To run a - command in the background you must set it as a background com- - mand with & at the end of the commands action (:com rm rm %f &). - Command name cannot contain numbers or special symbols (except - '?' and '!'). - - :com[mand] name /pattern - set search pattern. - - :com[mand] name =pattern - set local filter value. - - :com[mand] name filter{:filter args} - set file name filter (see :filter command description). For ex- - ample: - - " display only audio files - :command onlyaudio filter/.+.\(mp3|wav|mp3|flac|ogg|m4a|wma|ape\)$/i - " display everything except audio files - :command noaudio filter!/.+.\(mp3|wav|mp3|flac|ogg|m4a|wma|ape\)$/i - - :com[mand] cmd :commands - set kind of an alias for internal command (like in a shell). - Passes range given to alias to an aliased command, so running - :%cp after - :command cp :copy %a - equals - :%copy - - :compare - - :compare [byname | bysize | bycontents | listall | listunique | - listdups | ofboth | ofone | groupids | grouppaths | skipempty]... - compare files in one or two views according the arguments. The - default is "bycontents listall ofboth grouppaths". See "Compare - views" section below for details. Tree structure is incompati- - ble with alternative representations, so values of 'lsview' and - 'millerview' options are ignored. - - :copen - - :cope[n] - opens menu with contents of the last displayed menu with naviga- - tion to files by default, if any. - - :copy - - :[range]co[py][!?][ &] - copy files to directory of other view. With "?" prompts for - destination file names in an editor. "!" forces overwrite. - - :[range]co[py][!] path[ &] - copy files to directory specified with the path (absolute or - relative to directory of other view). "!" forces overwrite. - - :[range]co[py][!] name1 name2...[ &] - copy files to directory of other view giving each next file a - corresponding name from the argument list. "!" forces over- - write. - - :cquit - - :cq[uit][!] - same as :quit, but also aborts directory choosing via - --choose-dir (empties output file) and returns non-zero exit - code. - - :cunabbrev - - :cuna[bbrev] lhs - unregister command-line mode abbreviation by its lhs. - - :cuna[bbrev] rhs - unregister command-line mode abbreviation by its rhs, so that - abbreviation could be removed even after expansion. - - :delbmarks - - :delbmarks - remove bookmarks from current directory. - - :delbmarks tag1 [tag2 [tag3...]] - remove set of bookmarks that include all of the specified tags. - - :delbmarks! - remove all bookmarks. - - :delbmarks! path1 [path2 [path3...]] - remove bookmarks of listed paths. - - :delcommand - - :delc[ommand] user_command - remove user defined command named user_command. - - :delete - - :[range]d[elete][!][ &] - delete selected file or files. "!" means complete removal - (omitting trash). - - :[range]d[elete][!] [reg] [count][ &] - delete selected or [count] files to the reg register. "!" means - complete removal (omitting trash). - - :delmarks - - :delm[arks]! - delete all marks. - - :delm[arks] marks ... - delete specified marks, each argument is treated as a set of - marks. - - :display - - :di[splay] - display menu with registers content. - - :di[splay] list ... - display the contents of the numbered and named registers that - are mentioned in list (for example "az to display "", "a and "z - content). - - :dirs - - :dirs display directory stack. - - :echo - - :ec[ho] [<expr>...] - evaluate each argument as an expression and output them sepa- - rated with a space. See help on :let command for a definition - of <expr>. - - :edit - - :[range]e[dit] [file...] - open selected or passed file(s) in editor. Macros and environ- - ment variables are expanded. - - :else - - :el[se] - execute commands until next matching :endif if all other condi- - tions didn't match. See also help on :if and :endif commands. - - :elseif - - :elsei[f] {expr1} - execute commands until next matching :elseif, :else or :endif if - conditions of previous :if and :elseif branches were evaluated - to zero. See also help on :if and :endif commands. - - :empty - - :empty permanently remove files from all existing non-empty trash di- - rectories (see "Trash directory" section below). Trash directo- - ries which are specified via %r and/or %u also get deleted com- - pletely. Also remove all operations from undolist that have no - sense after :empty and remove all records about files located - inside directories from all registers. Removal is performed as - background task with undetermined amount of work and can be - checked via :jobs menu. - - :endif - - :en[dif] - end conditional block. See also help on :if and :else commands. - - :execute - - :exe[cute] [<expr>...] - evaluate each argument as an expression and join results sepa- - rated by a space to get a single string which is then executed - as a command-line command. See help on :let command for a defi- - nition of <expr>. - - :exit - - :exi[t][!] - same as :quit. - - :file - - :f[ile][ &] - display menu of programs set for the file type of the current - file. " &" forces running associated program in background. - - :f[ile] arg[ &] - run associated command that begins with the arg skipping opening - menu. " &" forces running associated program in background. - - :filetype - - :filet[ype] pattern-list [{descr}]def_prog[ &],[{descr}]prog2[ &],... - associate given program list to each of the patterns. Associ- - ated program (command) is used by handlers of l and Enter keys - (and also in the :file menu). If you need to insert comma into - command just double it (",,"). Space followed by an ampersand - as two last characters of a command means running of the command - in the background. Optional description can be given to each - command to ease understanding of what command will do in the - :file menu. Vifm will try the rest of the programs for an asso- - ciation when the default isn't found. When program entry - doesn't contain any of vifm macros, name of current file is ap- - pended as if program entry ended with %c macro on *nix and %"c - on Windows. On Windows path to executables containing spaces - can (and should be for correct work with such paths) be double - quoted. See "Patterns" section below for pattern definition. - See also "Automatic FUSE mounts" section below. Example for zip - archives and several actions: - - filetype *.zip,*.jar,*.war,*.ear - \ {Mount with fuse-zip} - \ FUSE_MOUNT|fuse-zip %SOURCE_FILE %DESTINATION_DIR, - \ {View contents} - \ zip -sf %c | less, - \ {Extract here} - \ tar -xf %c, - - Note that on OS X when `open` is used to call an app, vifm is - unable to check whether that app is actually available. So if - automatic skipping of programs that aren't there is desirable, - `open` should be replaced with an actual command. - - :filet[ype] filename - list (in menu mode) currently registered patterns that match - specified file name. Same as ":filextype filename". - - :filextype - - :filex[type] pattern-list [{ description }] def_program,program2,... - same as :filetype, but this command is ignored if not running in - X. In X :filextype is equal to :filetype. See "Patterns" sec- - tion below for pattern definition. See also "Automatic FUSE - mounts" section below. - - For example, consider the following settings (the order might - seem strange, but it's for the demonstration purpose): - - filetype *.html,*.htm - \ {View in lynx} - \ lynx - filextype *.html,*.htm - \ {Open with dwb} - \ dwb %f %i &, - filetype *.html,*.htm - \ {View in links} - \ links - filextype *.html,*.htm - \ {Open with firefox} - \ firefox %f &, - \ {Open with uzbl} - \ uzbl-browser %f %i &, - - If you're using vifm inside a terminal emulator that is running - in graphical environment (when X is used on *nix; always on Win- - dows), vifm attempts to run application in this order: - - 1. lynx - 2. dwb - 3. links - 4. firefox - 5. uzbl - - If there is no graphical environment (checked presence of $DIS- - PLAY environment variable on *nix; never happens on Windows), - the list will look like: - - 1. lynx - 2. links - - Just as if all :filextype commands were not there. - - The purpose of such differentiation is to allow comfortable use - of vifm with same settings in desktop environment/through remote - connection (SSH)/in native console. - - Note that on OS X $DISPLAY isn't defined unless you define it, - so :filextype should be used only if you set $DISPLAY in some - way. - - :filext[ype] filename - list (in menu mode) currently registered patterns that match - specified file name. Same as ":filetype filename". - - :fileviewer - - :filev[iewer] pattern-list command1,command2,... - register specified list of commands as viewers for each of the - patterns. Viewer is a command which output is captured and dis- - played in one of the panes of vifm after pressing "e" or running - :view command. When the command doesn't contain any of vifm - macros, name of current file is appended as if command ended - with %c macro. Comma escaping and missing commands processing - rules as for :filetype apply to this command. See "Patterns" - section below for pattern definition. - - Example for zip archives: - - fileviewer *.zip,*.jar,*.war,*.ear zip -sf %c, echo "No zip to preview:" - - :filev[iewer] filename - list (in menu mode) currently registered patterns that match - specified filename. - - :filter - - :filter[!] {pattern} - filter files matching the pattern out of directory listings. - '!' controls state of filter inversion after updating filter - value (see also 'cpoptions' description). Filter is matched - case sensitively on *nix and case insensitively on Windows. See - "File Filters" and "Patterns" sections. - - Example: - - " filter all files ending in .o from the filelist. - :filter /.o$/ - - - :filter[!] {empty-pattern} - same as above, but use last search pattern as pattern value. - - Example: - - :filter //I - - - :filter - reset filter (set it to an empty string) and show all files. - - :filter! - same as :invert. - - :filter? - show information on local, name and auto filters. - - :find - - :[range]fin[d] pattern - display results of find command in the menu. Searches among se- - lected files if any. Accepts macros. By default the command - relies on the external "find" utility, which can be customized - by altering value of the 'findprg' option. - - :[range]fin[d] -opt... - same as :find above, but user defines all find arguments. - Searches among selected files if any. - - :[range]fin[d] path -opt... - same as :find above, but user defines all find arguments. Ig- - nores selection and range. - - :[range]fin[d] - repeat last :find command. - - :finish - - :fini[sh] - stop sourcing a script. Can only be used in a vifm script file. - This is a quick way to skip the rest of the file. - - :goto - - :go[to] - change directory if necessary and put specified path under the - cursor. The path should be existing non-root path. Macros and - environment variables are expanded. - - :grep - - :[range]gr[ep][!] pattern - will show results of grep command in the menu. Add "!" to re- - quest inversion of search (look for lines that do not match pat- - tern). Searches among selected files if any and no range given. - Ignores binary files by default. By default the command relies - on the external "grep" utility, which can be customized by al- - tering value of the 'grepprg' option. - - :[range]gr[ep][!] -opt... - same as :grep above, but user defines all grep arguments, which - are not escaped. Searches among selected files if any. - - :[range]gr[ep][!] - repeat last :grep command. "!" of this command inverts "!" in - repeated command. - - :help - - :h[elp] - show the help file. - - :h[elp] argument - is the same as using ':h argument' in vim. Use vifm-<something> - to get help on vifm (tab completion works). This form of the - command doesn't work when 'vimhelp' option is off. - - :hideui - - :hideui - hide interface to show previous commands' output. - - :highlight - - :hi[ghlight] - display information about all highlight groups active at the mo- - ment. - - :hi[ghlight] clear - reset all highlighting to builtin defaults and removed all file- - name-specific rules. - - :hi[ghlight] clear ( {pat1,pat2,...} | /regexp/ ) - remove specified rule. - - :hi[ghlight] ( group-name | {pat1,pat2,...} | /regexp/ ) - display information on given highlight group or file name pat- - tern of color scheme used in the active view. - - :hi[ghlight] ( group-name | {pat1,pat2,...} | /regexp/[iI] ) - cterm=style | ctermfg=color | ctermbg=color - set style (cterm), foreground (ctermfg) or/and background - (ctermbg) parameters of highlight group or file name pattern for - color scheme used in the active view. - - All style values as well as color names are case insensitive. - - Available style values (some of them can be combined): - - bold - - underline - - reverse or inverse - - standout - - italic (on unsupported systems becomes reverse) - - none - - Available group-name values: - - Win - color of all windows (views, dialogs, menus) and default color - for their content (e.g. regular files in views) - - AuxWin - color of auxiliary areas of windows - - OtherWin - color of inactive pane - - Border - color of vertical parts of the border - - TabLine - tab line color (for 'tabscope' set to "global") - - TabLineSel - color of the tip of selected tab (regardless of 'tab- - scope') - - TopLineSel - top line color of the current pane - - TopLine - top line color of the other pane - - CmdLine - the command line/status bar color - - ErrorMsg - color of error messages in the status bar - - StatusLine - color of the line above the status bar - - JobLine - color of job line that appears above the status line - - WildMenu - color of the wild menu items - - SuggestBox - color of key suggestion box - - CurrLine - line at cursor position in active view - - OtherLine - line at cursor position in inactive view - - Selected - color of selected files - - Directory - color of directories - - Link - color of symbolic links in the views - - BrokenLink - color of broken symbolic links - - Socket - color of sockets - - Device - color of block and character devices - - Executable - color of executable files - - Fifo - color of fifo pipes - - CmpMismatch - color of mismatched files in side-by-side comparison - by path - - User1..User9 - 9 colors which can be used via %* 'statusline' macro - - Available colors: - - -1 or default or none - default or transparent - - black and lightblack - - red and lightred - - green and lightgreen - - yellow and lightyellow - - blue and lightblue - - magenta and lightmagenta - - cyan and lightcyan - - white and lightwhite - - 0-255 - corresponding colors from 256-color palette - - Light versions of colors are regular colors with bold attribute set. - So order of arguments of :highlight command is important and it's bet- - ter to put "cterm" in front of others to prevent it from overwriting - attributes set by "ctermfg" or "ctermbg" arguments. - - For convenience of color scheme authors xterm-like names for 256 color - palette is also supported. The mapping is taken from - http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Xterm256_color_names_for_console_Vim Dupli- - cated entries were altered by adding an underscore followed by numeri- - cal suffix. - - 0 Black 86 Aquamarine1 172 Orange3 - 1 Red 87 DarkSlateGray2 173 LightSalmon3_2 - 2 Green 88 DarkRed_2 174 LightPink3 - 3 Yellow 89 DeepPink4_2 175 Pink3 - 4 Blue 90 DarkMagenta 176 Plum3 - 5 Magenta 91 DarkMagenta_2 177 Violet - 6 Cyan 92 DarkViolet 178 Gold3_2 - 7 White 93 Purple 179 LightGoldenrod3 - 8 LightBlack 94 Orange4_2 180 Tan - 9 LightRed 95 LightPink4 181 MistyRose3 - 10 LightGreen 96 Plum4 182 Thistle3 - 11 LightYellow 97 MediumPurple3 183 Plum2 - 12 LightBlue 98 MediumPurple3_2 184 Yellow3_2 - 13 LightMagenta 99 SlateBlue1 185 Khaki3 - 14 LightCyan 100 Yellow4 186 LightGoldenrod2 - 15 LightWhite 101 Wheat4 187 LightYellow3 - 16 Grey0 102 Grey53 188 Grey84 - 17 NavyBlue 103 LightSlateGrey 189 LightSteelBlue1 - 18 DarkBlue 104 MediumPurple 190 Yellow2 - 19 Blue3 105 LightSlateBlue 191 DarkOliveGreen1 - 20 Blue3_2 106 Yellow4_2 192 DarkOliveG- - reen1_2 - 21 Blue1 107 DarkOliveGreen3 193 DarkSeaGreen1_2 - 22 DarkGreen 108 DarkSeaGreen 194 Honeydew2 - 23 DeepSkyBlue4 109 LightSkyBlue3 195 LightCyan1 - 24 DeepSkyBlue4_2 110 LightSkyBlue3_2 196 Red1 - 25 DeepSkyBlue4_3 111 SkyBlue2 197 DeepPink2 - 26 DodgerBlue3 112 Chartreuse2_2 198 DeepPink1 - 27 DodgerBlue2 113 DarkOliveGreen3_2 199 DeepPink1_2 - 28 Green4 114 PaleGreen3_2 200 Magenta2_2 - 29 SpringGreen4 115 DarkSeaGreen3 201 Magenta1 - 30 Turquoise4 116 DarkSlateGray3 202 OrangeRed1 - 31 DeepSkyBlue3 117 SkyBlue1 203 IndianRed1 - 32 DeepSkyBlue3_2 118 Chartreuse1 204 IndianRed1_2 - 33 DodgerBlue1 119 LightGreen_2 205 HotPink - 34 Green3 120 LightGreen_3 206 HotPink_2 - 35 SpringGreen3 121 PaleGreen1 207 MediumOrchid1_2 - 36 DarkCyan 122 Aquamarine1_2 208 DarkOrange - 37 LightSeaGreen 123 DarkSlateGray1 209 Salmon1 - 38 DeepSkyBlue2 124 Red3 210 LightCoral - 39 DeepSkyBlue1 125 DeepPink4_3 211 PaleVioletRed1 - 40 Green3_2 126 MediumVioletRed 212 Orchid2 - 41 SpringGreen3_2 127 Magenta3 213 Orchid1 - 42 SpringGreen2 128 DarkViolet_2 214 Orange1 - 43 Cyan3 129 Purple_2 215 SandyBrown - 44 DarkTurquoise 130 DarkOrange3 216 LightSalmon1 - 45 Turquoise2 131 IndianRed 217 LightPink1 - 46 Green1 132 HotPink3 218 Pink1 - 47 SpringGreen2_2 133 MediumOrchid3 219 Plum1 - 48 SpringGreen1 134 MediumOrchid 220 Gold1 - 49 MediumSpringGreen 135 MediumPurple2 221 LightGolden- - rod2_2 - 50 Cyan2 136 DarkGoldenrod 222 LightGolden- - rod2_3 - 51 Cyan1 137 LightSalmon3 223 NavajoWhite1 - 52 DarkRed 138 RosyBrown 224 MistyRose1 - 53 DeepPink4 139 Grey63 225 Thistle1 - 54 Purple4 140 MediumPurple2_2 226 Yellow1 - 55 Purple4_2 141 MediumPurple1 227 LightGoldenrod1 - 56 Purple3 142 Gold3 228 Khaki1 - 57 BlueViolet 143 DarkKhaki 229 Wheat1 - 58 Orange4 144 NavajoWhite3 230 Cornsilk1 - 59 Grey37 145 Grey69 231 Grey100 - 60 MediumPurple4 146 LightSteelBlue3 232 Grey3 - 61 SlateBlue3 147 LightSteelBlue 233 Grey7 - 62 SlateBlue3_2 148 Yellow3 234 Grey11 - 63 RoyalBlue1 149 DarkOliveGreen3_3 235 Grey15 - 64 Chartreuse4 150 DarkSeaGreen3_2 236 Grey19 - 65 DarkSeaGreen4 151 DarkSeaGreen2 237 Grey23 - 66 PaleTurquoise4 152 LightCyan3 238 Grey27 - 67 SteelBlue 153 LightSkyBlue1 239 Grey30 - 68 SteelBlue3 154 GreenYellow 240 Grey35 - 69 CornflowerBlue 155 DarkOliveGreen2 241 Grey39 - 70 Chartreuse3 156 PaleGreen1_2 242 Grey42 - 71 DarkSeaGreen4_2 157 DarkSeaGreen2_2 243 Grey46 - 72 CadetBlue 158 DarkSeaGreen1 244 Grey50 - 73 CadetBlue_2 159 PaleTurquoise1 245 Grey54 - 74 SkyBlue3 160 Red3_2 246 Grey58 - 75 SteelBlue1 161 DeepPink3 247 Grey62 - 76 Chartreuse3_2 162 DeepPink3_2 248 Grey66 - 77 PaleGreen3 163 Magenta3_2 249 Grey70 - 78 SeaGreen3 164 Magenta3_3 250 Grey74 - 79 Aquamarine3 165 Magenta2 251 Grey78 - 80 MediumTurquoise 166 DarkOrange3_2 252 Grey82 - 81 SteelBlue1_2 167 IndianRed_2 253 Grey85 - 82 Chartreuse2 168 HotPink3_2 254 Grey89 - 83 SeaGreen2 169 HotPink2 255 Grey93 - 84 SeaGreen1 170 Orchid - 85 SeaGreen1_2 171 MediumOrchid1 - - There are two colors (foreground and background) and only one bold at- - tribute. Thus single bold attribute affects both colors when "reverse" - attribute is used in vifm run inside terminal emulator. At the same - time linux native console can handle boldness of foreground and back- - ground colors independently, but for consistency with terminal emula- - tors this is available only implicitly by using light versions of col- - ors. This behaviour might be changed in the future. - - Although vifm supports 256 colors in a sense they are supported by UI - drawing library, whether you will be able to use all of them highly de- - pends on your terminal. To set up terminal properly, make sure that - $TERM in the environment you run vifm is set to name of 256-color ter- - minal (on *nixes it can also be set via X resources), e.g. - xterm-256color. One can find list of available terminal names by list- - ing /usr/lib/terminfo/. Number of colors supported by terminal with - current settings can be checked via "tput colors" command. - - Here is the hierarchy of highlight groups, which you need to know for - using transparency: - JobLine - SuggestBox - StatusLine - WildMenu - User1..User9 - Border - CmdLine - ErrorMsg - Win - OtherWin - AuxWin - File name specific highlights - Directory - Link - BrokenLink - Socket - Device - Fifo - Executable - Selected - CurrLine - OtherLine - TopLine - TopLineSel - TabLineSel (for pane tabs) - TabLine - TabLineSel - - "none" means default terminal color for highlight groups at the first - level of the hierarchy and transparency for all others. - - Here file name specific highlights mean those configured via globs ({}) - or regular expressions (//). At most one of them is applied per file - entry, namely the first that matches file name, hence order of :high- - light commands might be important in certain cases. - - :history - - :his[tory] - creates a pop-up menu of directories visited. - - :his[tory] x - x can be: - d[ir] or . show directory history. - c[md] or : show command line history. - s[earch] or / show search history and search forward on l key. - f[search] or / show search history and search forward on l key. - b[search] or ? show search history and search backward on l key. - i[nput] or @ show prompt history (e.g. on one file renaming). - fi[lter] or = show filter history (see description of the "=" - normal mode command). - - :histnext - - :histnext - same as <c-i>. The main use case for this command is to work - around the common pain point of <tab> and <c-i> being the same - ASCII character: one could alter the terminal emulator settings - to emit, for example, the `F1` keycode when Ctrl-I is pressed, - then `:noremap <f1> :histnext<cr>` in vifm, add "t" flag to the - 'cpoptions', and thus have both <c-i> and <tab> working as ex- - pected. - - :histprev - - :histprev - same as <c-o>. - - :if - - :if {expr1} - starts conditional block. Commands are executed until next - matching :elseif, :else or :endif command if {expr1} evaluates - to non-zero, otherwise they are ignored. See also help on :else - and :endif commands. - - Example: - - if $TERM == 'screen.linux' - highlight CurrLine ctermfg=lightwhite ctermbg=lightblack - elseif $TERM == 'tmux' - highlight CurrLine cterm=reverse ctermfg=black ctermbg=white - else - highlight CurrLine cterm=bold,reverse ctermfg=black ctermbg=white - endif - - :invert - - :invert [f] - invert file name filter. - - :invert? [f] - show current filter state. - - :invert s - invert selection. - - :invert o - invert sorting order of the primary sorting key. - - :invert? o - show sorting order of the primary sorting key. - - :jobs - - :jobs shows menu of current backgrounded processes. - - :let - - :let $ENV_VAR = <expr> - sets environment variable. Warning: setting environment vari- - able to an empty string on Windows removes it. - - :let $ENV_VAR .= <expr> - append value to environment variable. - - :let &[l:|g:]opt = <expr> - sets option value. - - :let &[l:|g:]opt .= <expr> - append value to string option. - - :let &[l:|g:]opt += <expr> - increasing option value, adding sub-values. - - :let &[l:|g:]opt -= <expr> - decreasing option value, removing sub-values. - - Where <expr> could be a single-quoted string, double-quoted string, an - environment variable, function call or a concatanation of any of them - in any order using the '.' operator. Any whitespace is ignored. - - :locate - - :locate filename - use "locate" command to create a menu of filenames. Selecting a - file from the menu will reload the current file list in vifm to - show the selected file. By default the command relies on the - external "locate" utility (it's assumed that its database is al- - ready built), which can be customized by altering value of the - 'locateprg' option. - - :locate - repeats last :locate command. - - :ls - - :ls lists windows of active terminal multiplexer (only when terminal - multiplexer is used). This is achieved by issuing proper com- - mand for active terminal multiplexer, thus the list is not han- - dled by vifm. - - :lstrash - - :lstrash - displays a menu with list of files in trash. Each element of - the list is original path of a deleted file, thus the list can - contain duplicates. - - :mark - - :[range]ma[rk][?] x [/full/path] [filename] - Set mark x (a-zA-Z0-9) at /full/path and filename. By default - current directory is being used. If no filename was given and - /full/path is current directory then last file in [range] is - used. Using of macros is allowed. Question mark will stop com- - mand from overwriting existing marks. - - :marks - - :marks create a pop-up menu of marks. - - :marks list ... - display the contents of the marks that are mentioned in list. - - :media - - :media only for *nix - display media management menu. See also 'mediaprg' option. - - :messages - - :mes[sages] - shows previously given messages (up to 50). - - :mkdir - - :[line]mkdir[!] dir ... - create directories at specified paths. The [line] can be used - to pick node in a tree-view. "!" means make parent directories - as needed. Macros are expanded. - - :move - - :[range]m[ove][!?][ &] - move files to directory of other view. With "?" prompts for - destination file names in an editor. "!" forces overwrite. - - :[range]m[ove][!] path[ &] - move files to directory specified with the path (absolute or - relative to directory of other view). "!" forces overwrite. - - :[range]m[ove][!] name1 name2...[ &] - move files to directory of other view giving each next file a - corresponding name from the argument list. "!" forces over- - write. - - :nohlsearch - - :noh[lsearch] - clear selection in current pane. - - :normal - - :norm[al][!] commands - execute normal mode commands. If "!" is used, user defined map- - pings are ignored. Unfinished last command is aborted as if - <esc> or <c-c> was typed. A ":" should be completed as well. - Commands can't start with a space, so put a count of 1 (one) be- - fore it. - - :only - - :on[ly] - switch to a one window view. - - :popd - - :popd remove pane directories from stack. - - :pushd - - :pushd[!] /curr/dir [/other/dir] - add pane directories to stack and process arguments like :cd - command. - - :pushd exchange the top two items of the directory stack. - - :put - - :[line]pu[t][!] [reg] [ &] - puts files from specified register (" by default) into current - directory. The [line] can be used to pick node in a tree-view. - "!" moves files "!" moves files from their original location in- - stead of copying them. During this operation no confirmation - dialogs will be shown, all checks are performed beforehand. - - :pwd - - :pw[d] show the present working directory. - - :qall - - :qa[ll][!] - exit vifm (add ! to skip saving changes and checking for active - backgrounded commands). - - :quit - - :q[uit][!] - if there is more than one tab, close the current one, otherwise - exit vifm (add ! to skip saving changes and checking for active - backgrounded commands). - - :redraw - - :redr[aw] - redraw the screen immediately. - - :registers - - :reg[isters] - display menu with registers content. - - :reg[isters] list ... - display the contents of the numbered and named registers that - are mentioned in list (for example "az to display "", "a and "z - content). - - :regular - - :regular - - switch to regular view leaving custom view. - :rename - - :[range]rename[!] - rename files using vi to edit names. ! means go recursively - through directories. - - :[range]rename name1 name2... - rename each of selected files to a corresponding name. - - :restart - - :restart - free a lot of things (histories, commands, etc.), reread - vifminfo and vifmrc files and run startup commands passed in the - argument list, thus losing all unsaved changes (e.g. recent his- - tory or keys mapped in current session). - - While many things get reset, some basic UI state and current lo- - cations are preserved, including tabs. - - :restore - - :[range]restore - restore file from trash directory, doesn't work outside one of - trash directories. See "Trash directory" section below. - - :rlink - - :[range]rlink[!?] - create relative symbolic links to files in directory of other - view. With "?" prompts for destination file names in an editor. - "!" forces overwrite. - - :[range]rlink[!] path - create relative symbolic links of files in directory specified - with the path (absolute or relative to directory of other view). - "!" forces overwrite. - - :[range]rlink[!] name1 name2... - create relative symbolic links of files in directory of other - view giving each next link a corresponding name from the argu- - ment list. "!" forces overwrite. - - :screen - - :screen - toggle whether to use the terminal multiplexer or not. - A terminal multiplexer uses pseudo terminals to allow multiple - windows to be used in the console or in a single xterm. Start- - ing vifm from terminal multiplexer with appropriate support - turned on will cause vifm to open a new terminal multiplexer - window for each new file edited or program launched from vifm. - This requires screen version 3.9.9 or newer for the screen -X - argument or tmux (1.8 version or newer is recommended). - - :screen! - enable integration with terminal multiplexers. - - :screen? - display whether integration with terminal multiplexers is en- - abled. - - Note: the command is called screen for historical reasons (when tmux - wasn't yet supported) and might be changed in future releases, or get - an alias. - - :select - - :[range]select - select files in the given range (current file if no range is - given). - - :select {pattern} - select files that match specified pattern. Possible {pattern} - forms are described in "Patterns" section below. Trailing slash - for directories is taken into account, so `:select! */ | invert - s` selects only files. - - :select //[iI] - same as item above, but reuses last search pattern. - - :select !{external command} - select files from the list supplied by external command. Files - are matched by full paths, relative paths are converted to abso- - lute ones beforehand. - - :[range]select! [{pattern}] - same as above, but resets previously selected items before pro- - ceeding. - - :set - - :se[t] display all options that differ from their default value. - - :se[t] all - display all options. - - :se[t] opt1=val1 opt2='val2' opt3="val3" ... - sets given options.

"!" suppresses spawning - dedicated window of terminal multiplexer for a shell. To make - vifm adaptive to environment it uses $SHELL if it's defined, - otherwise 'shell' value is used. - - - :siblnext - - :[count]siblnext[!] - - change directory to [count]th next sibling directory after cur- - rent path using value of global sort option of current pane. - "!" enables wrapping. - - For example, say, you're at /boot and root listing starts like - this: - - bin/ - boot/ - dev/ - ... - - Issuing :siblnext will navigate to /dev. - - - :siblprev - - :[count]siblprev[!] - same as :siblnext, but in the opposite direction. - - :sort - - :sor[t] - display dialog with different sorting methods, when one can se- - lect primary sorting key. When 'viewcolumns' options is empty - and 'lsview' is off, changing primary sorting key will also af- - fect view look (in particular the second column of the view will - be changed). - - :source - - :so[urce] file - read command-line commands from the file. - - :split - - :sp[lit] - switch to a two window horizontal view. - - :sp[lit]! - toggle horizontal window splitting. - - :sp[lit] path - splits the window horizontally to show both file directories. - Also changes other pane to path (absolute or relative to current - directory of active pane). - - :substitute - - :[range]s[ubstitute]/pattern/string/[flags] - for each file in range replace a match of pattern with string. - - String can contain \0...\9 to link to capture groups (\0 - all match, - \1 - first group, etc.). - - Pattern is stored in search history. - - Available flags: - - - i - ignore case (the 'ignorecase' and 'smartcase' options are not - used) - - - I - don't ignore case (the 'ignorecase' and 'smartcase' options are - not used) - - - g - substitute all matches in each file name (each g toggles this) - - :[range]s[ubstitute]/pattern - substitute pattern with an empty string. - - :[range]s[ubstitute]//string/[flags] - use last pattern from search history. - - :[range]s[ubstitute] - repeat previous substitution command. - - :sync - - :sync [relative path] - change the other pane to the current pane directory or to some - path relative to the current directory. Using macros is al- - lowed. - - :sync! change the other pane to the current pane directory and synchro- - nize cursor position. If current pane displays custom list of - files, position before entering it is used (current one might - not make any sense). - - - :sync! [location | cursorpos | localopts | filters | filelist | tree | - all]... - change enumerated properties of the other pane to match corre- - sponding properties of the current pane. Arguments have the - following meanings: - - - location - current directory of the pane; - - - cursorpos - cursor position (doesn't make sense without "lo- - cation"); - - - localopts - all local options; - - - filters - all filters; - - - filelist - list of files for custom view (implies "loca- - tion"); - - - tree - tree structure for tree view (implies "location"); - - - all - all of the above. - - :tabclose - - :tabc[lose] - close current tab, unless it's the only one open at current - scope. - - :tabmove - - :tabm[ove] [N] - without the argument or with `$` as the argument, current tab - becomes the last tab. With the argument, current tab is moved - after the tab with the specified number.

Tab numeration starts with 1. - - :tabprevious - - :tabp[revious] - switch to the previous tab (wrapping around). - - :tabp[revious] {n} - go to the {n}-th previous tab. Note that :tabnext handles its - argument differently. - - :touch - - :[line]touch file... - create files at specified paths. Aborts on errors. Doesn't up- - date time of existing files. The [line] can be used to pick - node in a tree-view. Macros are expanded. - - :tr - - :[range]tr/pattern/string/ - for each file in range transliterate the characters which appear - in pattern to the corresponding character in string. When - string is shorter than pattern, it's padded with its last char- - acter. - - :trashes - - :trashes - lists all valid trash directories in a menu. Only non-empty and - writable trash directories are shown. This is exactly the list - of directories that are cleared when :empty command is executed. - - :trashes? - same as :trashes, but also displays size of each trash direc- - tory. - - :tree - - :tree turn pane into tree view with current directory as its root. - The tree view is implemented on top of a custom view, but is au- - tomatically kept in sync with file system state and considers - all the filters. Thus the structure corresponds to what one - would see on visiting the directories manually. As a special - case for trees built out of custom view file-system tracking - isn't performed. - - To leave tree view go up from its root or use gh at any level of - the tree. Any command that changes directory will also do, in - particular, `:cd ..`. - - Tree structure is incompatible with alternative representations, - so values of 'lsview' and 'millerview' options are ignored. - - :tree! toggle current view in and out of tree mode. - - :undolist - - :undol[ist] - display list of latest changes. Use "!" to see actual commands. - - :unlet - - :unl[et][!] $ENV_VAR1 $ENV_VAR2 ... - remove environment variables. Add ! to omit displaying of warn- - ings about nonexistent variables. - - :unselect - - :[range]unselect - unselect files in the given range (current file if no range is - given). - - :unselect {pattern} - unselect files that match specified pattern. Possible {pattern} - forms are described in "Patterns" section below. Trailing slash - for directories is taken into account, so `:unselect */` unse- - lects directories. - - :unselect !{external command} - unselect files from the list supplied by external command. - Files are matched by full paths, relative paths are converted to - absolute ones beforehand. - - :unselect //[iI] - same as item above, but reuses last search pattern. - - :version - - :ve[rsion] - show menu with version information. - - :vifm - - :vifm same as :version. - - :view - - :vie[w] - toggle on and off the quick file view.

Hitting l (or Enter) key opens - appropriate volume in the current pane. - - :vsplit - - :vs[plit] - switch to a two window vertical view. - - :vs[plit]! - toggle window vertical splitting. - - :vs[plit] path - split the window vertically to show both file directories. And - changes other pane to path (absolute or relative to current di- - rectory of active pane). - - :wincmd - - :[count]winc[md] {arg} - same as running Ctrl-W [count] {arg}. - - :windo - - :windo [command...] - execute command for each pane (same as :winrun % command). - - :winrun - - :winrun type [command...] - execute command for pane(s), which is determined by type argu- - ment: - - ^ - top-left pane - - $ - bottom-right pane - - % - all panes - - . - current pane - - , - other pane - - :write - - :w[rite] - write vifminfo file. - - :wq - - :wq[!] same as :quit, but ! only disables check of backgrounded com- - mands. :wqall - - :wqa[ll][!] - same as :qall, but ! only disables check of backgrounded com- - mands. - - :xall - - :xa[ll][!] - same as :qall. - - :xit - - :x[it][!] - same as :quit. - - :yank - - :[range]y[ank] [reg] [count] - will yank files to the reg register. - - :map lhs rhs - - :map lhs rhs - map lhs key sequence to rhs in normal and visual modes. - - :map! lhs rhs - map lhs key sequence to rhs in command line mode. - - - :cmap :dmap :mmap :nmap :qmap - :vmap - - :cm[ap] lhs rhs - map lhs to rhs in command line mode. - - :dm[ap] lhs rhs - map lhs to rhs in dialog modes. - - :mm[ap] lhs rhs - map lhs to rhs in menu mode. - - :nm[ap] lhs rhs - map lhs to rhs in normal mode. - - :qm[ap] lhs rhs - map lhs to rhs in view mode. - - :vm[ap] lhs rhs - map lhs to rhs in visual mode. - - - :*map - - :cm[ap] - list all maps in command line mode. - - :dm[ap] - list all maps in dialog modes. - - :mm[ap] - list all maps in menu mode. - - :nm[ap] - list all maps in normal mode. - - :qm[ap] - list all maps in view mode. - - :vm[ap] - list all maps in visual mode. - - :*map beginning - - :cm[ap] beginning - list all maps in command line mode that start with the begin- - ning. - - :dm[ap] beginning - list all maps in dialog modes that start with the beginning. - - :mm[ap] beginning - list all maps in menu mode that start with the beginning. - - :nm[ap] beginning - list all maps in normal mode that start with the beginning. - - :qm[ap] beginning - list all maps in view mode that start with the beginning. - - :vm[ap] beginning - list all maps in visual mode that start with the beginning. - - :noremap - - :no[remap] lhs rhs - map the key sequence lhs to rhs for normal and visual modes, but - disallow mapping of rhs. - - :no[remap]! lhs rhs - map the key sequence lhs to rhs for command line mode, but dis- - allow mapping of rhs. - - :cnoremap :dnoremap :mnoremap :nnoremap :qnoremap - :vnoremap - - :cno[remap] lhs rhs - map the key sequence lhs to rhs for command line mode, but dis- - allow mapping of rhs. - - :dn[oremap] lhs rhs - map the key sequence lhs to rhs for dialog modes, but disallow - mapping of rhs. - - :mn[oremap] lhs rhs - map the key sequence lhs to rhs for menu mode, but disallow map- - ping of rhs. - - :nn[oremap] lhs rhs - map the key sequence lhs to rhs for normal mode, but disallow - mapping of rhs. - - :qn[oremap] lhs rhs - map the key sequence lhs to rhs for view mode, but disallow map- - ping of rhs. - - :vn[oremap] lhs rhs - map the key sequence lhs to rhs for visual mode, but disallow - mapping of rhs. - - :unmap - - :unm[ap] lhs - remove user mapping of lhs from normal and visual modes. - - :unm[ap]! lhs - remove user mapping of lhs from command line mode. - - :cunmap :dunmap :munmap :nunmap :qunmap - :vunmap - - :cu[nmap] lhs - remove user mapping of lhs from command line mode. - - :du[nmap] lhs - remove user mapping of lhs from dialog modes. - - :mu[nmap] lhs - remove user mapping of lhs from menu mode. - - :nun[map] lhs - remove user mapping of lhs from normal mode. - - :qun[map] lhs - remove user mapping of lhs from view mode. - - :vu[nmap] lhs - remove user mapping of lhs from visual mode. - -Ranges - The ranges implemented include: - 2,3 - from second to third file in the list (including it) - % - the entire directory. - . - the current position in the filelist. - $ - the end of the filelist. - 't - the mark position t. - - Examples: - - :%delete - - would delete all files in the directory. - - :2,4delete - - would delete the files in the list positions 2 through 4. - - :.,$delete - - would delete the files from the current position to the end of the - filelist. - - :3delete4 - - would delete the files in the list positions 3, 4, 5, 6. - - If a backward range is given :4,2delete - an query message is given and - user can chose what to do next. - - The builtin commands that accept a range are :d[elete] and :y[ank]. - -Command macros - The command macros may be used in user commands. - - %a User arguments. When user arguments contain macros, they are - expanded before preforming substitution of %a. - - %c %"c The current file under the cursor. - - %C %"C The current file under the cursor in the other directory. - - %f %"f All of the selected files. - - %F %"F All of the selected files in the other directory list. - - %b %"b Same as %f %F. - - %d %"d Full path to current directory. - - %D %"D Full path to other file list directory. - - %rx %"rx - Full paths to files in the register {x}. In case of invalid - symbol in place of {x}, it's processed with the rest of the line - and default register is used. - - %m Show command output in a menu. - - %M Same as %m, but l (or Enter) key is handled like for :locate and - :find commands. - - %u Process command output as list of paths and compose custom view - out of it. - - %U Same as %u, but implies less list updates inside vifm, which is - absence of sorting at the moment. - - %Iu same as %u, but gives up terminal before running external com- - mand. - - %IU same as %U, but gives up terminal before running external com- - mand. - - %S Show command output in the status bar. - - %q redirect command output to quick view, which is activated if - disabled. - - %s Execute command in split window of active terminal multiplexer - (ignored if not running inside one). - - %n Forbid using of terminal multiplexer to run the command. - - %i Completely ignore command output. - - - %pc Marks the end of the main command and the beginning of the clear - command for graphical preview, which is invoked on closing pre- - view of a file. - - %pd Marks a preview command as one that directly communicates with - the terminal. Beware that this is for things like sixel which - are self-contained sequences that depend only on current cursor - position, using this with anything else is likely to mangle ter- - minal state. - - The following dimensions and coordinates are in characters: - - %px x coordinate of top-left corner of preview area. - - %py y coordinate of top-left corner of preview area. - - %pw width of preview area. - - %ph height of preview area. - - - Use %% if you need to put a percent sign in your command. - - Note that %m, %M, %s, %S, %i, %u and %U macros are mutually exclusive. - Only the last one of them on the command will take effect. - - You can use file name modifiers after %c, %C, %f, %F, %b, %d and %D - macros. Supported modifiers are: - - - :p - full path - - - :u - UNC name of path (e.g. "\\server" in - "\\server\share"), Windows only. Expands to current computer name - for not UNC paths. - - - :~ - relative to the home directory - - - :. - relative to current directory - - - :h - head of the file name - - - :t - tail of the file name - - - :r - root of the file name (without last extension) - - - :e - extension of the file name (last one) - - - :s?pat?sub? - substitute the first occurrence of pat with sub. - You can use any character for '?', but it must not occur in pat or - sub. - - - :gs?pat?sub? - like :s, but substitutes all occurrences of pat with - sub. - - See ':h filename-modifiers' in Vim's documentation for the detailed de- - scription. - - Using %x means expand corresponding macro escaping all characters that - have special meaning. And %"x means using of double quotes and escape - only backslash and double quote characters, which is more useful on - Windows systems. - - Position and quantity (if there is any) of %m, %M, %S or %s macros in - the command is unimportant. All their occurrences are removed from the - resulting command. - - %c and %f macros are expanded to file names only, when %C and %F are - expanded to full paths. %f and %F follow this in %b too. - - :com move mv %f %D - set the :move command to move all of the files selected in the - current directory to the other directory. - - The %a macro is replaced with any arguments given to an alias command. - All arguments are considered optional. - :com lsl !!ls -l %a - set the lsl command to execute ls -l with - or without an argument. - - :lsl<Enter> - will list the directory contents of the current directory. - - :lsl filename<Enter> - will list only the given filename. - - The macros can also be used in directly executing commands. ":!mv %f - %D" would move the current directory selected files to the other direc- - tory. - - Appending & to the end of a command causes it to be executed in the - background. Typically you want to run two kinds of external commands - in the background: - - - GUI applications that doesn't fork thus block vifm (:!sxiv %f &); - - - console tools that do not work with terminal (:!mv %f %D &). - - You don't want to run terminal commands, which require terminal input - or output something in background because they will mess up vifm's TUI. - Anyway, if you did run such a command, you can use Ctrl-L key to update - vifm's TUI. - - Rewriting the example command with macros given above with background- - ing: - - %m, %M, %s, %S, %u and %U macros cannot be combined with background - mark (" &") as it doesn't make much sense. - -Command backgrounding - Copy and move operation can take a lot of time to proceed. That's why - vifm supports backgrounding of this two operations. To run :copy, - :move or :delete command in the background just add " &" at the end of - a command. - - For each background operation a new thread is created. Job cancella- - tion can be requested in the :jobs menu via dd shortcut. - - You can see if command is still running in the :jobs menu. Back- - grounded commands have progress instead of process id at the line be- - ginning. - - Background operations cannot be undone. - -Cancellation - Note that cancellation works somewhat different on Windows platform due - to different mechanism of break signal propagation. One also might - need to use Ctrl-Break shortcut instead of Ctrl-C. - - There are two types of operations that can be cancelled: - - - file system operations; - - - mounting with FUSE (but not unmounting as it can cause loss of - data); - - - calls of external applications. - - Note that vifm never terminates applications, it sends SIGINT signal - and lets the application quit normally. - - When one of set of operations is cancelled (e.g. copying of 5th file of - 10 files), further operations are cancelled too. In this case undo - history will contain only actually performed operations. - - Cancelled operations are indicated by "(cancelled)" suffix appended to - information message on statusbar. - - File system operations - - Currently the following commands can be cancelled: :alink, :chmod, - :chown, :clone, :copy, :delete, :mkdir, :move, :restore, :rlink, - :touch. File putting (on p/P key) can be cancelled as well. It's not - hard to see that these are mainly long-running operations. - - Cancelling commands when they are repeated for undo/redo operations is - allowed for convenience, but is not recommended as further undo/redo - operations might get blocked by side-effects of partially cancelled - group of operations. - - These commands can't be cancelled: :empty, :rename, :substitute, :tr. - - Mounting with FUSE - - It's not considered to be an error, so only notification on the status - bar is shown. - - External application calls - - Each of this operations can be cancelled: :apropos, :find, :grep, :lo- - cate. - -Patterns - :highlight, :filetype, :filextype, :fileviewer commands and 'classify' - option support globs, regular expressions and mime types to match file - names or their paths. - - There are six possible ways to write a single pattern: - - 1. [!]{comma-separated-name-globs} - - 2. [!]{{comma-separated-path-globs}} - - 3. [!]/name-regular-expression/[iI] - - 4. [!]//path-regular-expression//[iI] - - 5. [!]<comma-separated-mime-type-globs> - - 6. undecorated-pattern - - First five forms can include leading exclamation mark that negates pat- - tern matching. - - The last form is implicitly refers to one of others. :highlight does - not accept undecorated form, while :filetype, :filextype, :fileviewer, - :select, :unselect and 'classify' treat it as list of name globs. - - Path patterns receive absolute path of the file that includes its name - component as well. - - To combine several patterns (AND them), make sure you're using one of - the first five forms and write patterns one after another, like this: - <text/plain>{*.vifm} - Mind that if you make a mistake the whole string will be treated as the - sixth form. - - :filetype, :filextype and :fileviewer commands accept comma-separated - list of patterns instead of a single pattern, thus effectively handling - OR operation on them: - <text/plain>{*.vifm},<application/pdf>{*.pdf} - Forms that accept comma-separated lists of patterns also process them - as lists of alternatives. - - Patterns with regular expressions - - Regular expression patterns are case insensitive by default, see de- - scription of commands, which might override default behaviour. - - Flags of regular expressions mean the following: - - "i" makes filter case insensitive; - - "I" makes filter case sensitive. They can be repeated multiple - times, but the later one takes precedence (e.g. "iiiI" is equivalent - to "I" and "IiIi" is the same as "i"). - - There are no implicit `^` or `$`, so make sure to specify them explic- - itly if the pattern should match the whole name or path. - - Patterns with globs - - "Globs" section below provides short overview of globs and some impor- - tant points that one needs to know about them. - - Patterns with mime-types - - Mime type matching is essentially globs matching applied to mime type - of a file instead of its name/path. Note: mime types aren't detected - on Windows. - - Examples - - Associate `evince` to PDF-files only inside `/home/user/downloads/` di- - rectory (excluding its subdirectories): - - :filextype //^/home/user/downloads/[^/]*.pdf$// evince %f - - -Globs - Globs are always case insensitive as it makes sense in general case. - - `*`, `?`, `[` and `]` are treated as special symbols in the pattern. - E.g. - - :filetype * less %c - - matches all files. One can use character classes for escaping, so - - :filetype [*] less %c - - matches only one file name, the one which contains only asterisk sym- - bol. - - `*` means any number of any characters (possibly an empty substring), - with one exception: asterisk at the pattern beginning doesn't match dot - in the first position. E.g. - - :fileviewer *.zip,*.jar zip -sf %c - - associates using of `zip` program to preview all files with `zip` or - `jar` extensions as listing of their content, but `.file.zip` won't be - matched. - - `?` means any character at this position. E.g. - - :fileviewer ?.out file %c - - calls `file` tool for all files which have exactly one character before - their extension (e.g. a.out, b.out). - - Square brackets designate character class, which means that whole char- - acter class matches against any of characters listed in it. For exam- - ple - - :fileviewer *.[ch] highlight -O xterm256 -s dante --syntax c %c - - makes vifm call `highlight` program to colorize source and header files - in C language for a 256-color terminal. Equal command would be - - :fileviewer *.c,*.h highlight -O xterm256 -s dante --syntax c %c - - - Inside square brackets `^` or `!` can be used for symbol class negotia- - tion and the `-` symbol to set a range. `^` and `!` should appear - right after the opening square bracket. For example - - :filetype *.[!d]/ inspect_dir - - associates `inspect_dir` as additional handler for all directories that - have one character extension unless it's "d" letter. And - - :filetype [0-9].jpg sxiv - - associates `sxiv` picture viewer only for JPEG-files that contain sin- - gle digit in their name. - -:set options - Local options - These are kind of options that are local to a specific view. So - you can set ascending sorting order for left pane and descending - order for right pane. - - In addition to being local to views, each such option also has - two values: - - - local to current directory (value associated with current - location); - - - global to current directory (value associated with the - pane). - - The idea is that current directory can be made a temporary ex- - ception to regular configuration of the view, until directory - change. Use :setlocal for that. :setglobal changes view value - not affecting settings until directory change. :set applies - changes immediately to all values. - - - 'aproposprg' - type: string - default: "apropos %a" - Specifies format for an external command to be invoked by the - :apropos command. The format supports expanding of macros, spe- - cific for a particular *prg option, and %% sequence for insert- - ing percent sign literally. This option should include the %a - macro to specify placement of arguments passed to the :apropos - command. If the macro is not used, it will be implicitly added - after a space to the value of this option. - - 'autochpos' - type: boolean - default: true - When disabled vifm will set cursor to the first line in the view - after :cd and :pushd commands instead of saved cursor position. - Disabling this will also make vifm clear information about cur- - sor position in the view history on :cd and :pushd commands (and - on startup if 'autochpos' is disabled in the vifmrc). l key in - the ":history ." and ":trashes" menus are treated like :cd com- - mand. This option also affects marks so that navigating to a - mark doesn't restore cursor position. - - When this option is enabled, more fine grained control over cur- - sor position is available via 'histcursor' option. - - 'columns' 'co' - type: integer - default: terminal width on startup - Terminal width in characters. - - 'caseoptions' - type: charset - default: "" - This option gives additional control over case sensitivity by - allowing overriding default behaviour to either always be case - sensitive or always be case insensitive. Possible values form - pairs of lower and upper case letters that configure specific - aspect of behaviour: - p - always ignore case of paths during completion. - P - always match case of paths during completion. - g - always ignore case of characters for f/F/;/,. - G - always match case of characters for f/F/;/,. - - At most one item of each pair takes affect, if both or more are - present, only the last one matters. When none of pair's ele- - ments are present, the behaviour is default (depends on operat- - ing system for path completion and on values of 'ignorecase' and - 'smartcase' options for file navigation). - - 'cdpath' 'cd' - type: string list - default: value of $CDPATH with commas instead of colons - Specifies locations to check on changing directory with relative - path that doesn't start with "./" or "../". When non-empty, - current directory is examined after directories listed in the - option. - - This option doesn't affect completion of :cd command. - - Example: - - set cdpath=~ - - This way ":cd bin" will switch to "~/bin" even if directory - named "bin" exists in current directory, while ":cd ./bin" com- - mand will ignore value of 'cdpath'. - - 'chaselinks' - type: boolean - default: false - When enabled path of view is always resolved to real path (with - all symbolic links expanded). - - 'classify' - type: string list - default: ":dir:/" - Specifies file name prefixes and suffixes depending on file type - or name. The format is either of: - - [{prefix}]:{filetype}:[{suffix}] - - [{prefix}]::{pattern}::[{suffix}] - Possible {pattern} forms are described in "Patterns" section - above. - - Priority rules: - - file name patterns have priority over type patterns - - file name patterns are matched in left-to-right order of - their appearance in this option - - Either {prefix} or {suffix} or both can be omitted (which is the - default for all unspecified file types), this means empty {pre- - fix} and/or {suffix}. {prefix} and {suffix} should consist of - at most eight characters. Elements are separated by commas. - Neither prefixes nor suffixes are part of file names, so they - don't affect commands which operate on file names in any way. - Comma (',') character can be inserted by doubling it. List of - file type names can be found in the description of filetype() - function. - - 'confirm' 'cf' - type: set - default: delete,permdelete - Defines which operations require confirmation: - - delete - moving files to trash (on d or :delete); - - permdelete - permanent deletion of files (on D or :delete! - command or on undo/redo operation). - - 'cpoptions' 'cpo' - type: charset - default: "fst" - Contains a sequence of single-character flags. Each flag en- - ables behaviour of older versions of vifm. Flags: - - f - when included, running :filter command results in not in- - verted (matching files are filtered out) and :filter! in in- - verted (matching files are left) filter, when omitted, meaning - of the exclamation mark changes to the opposite; - - s - when included, yy, dd and DD normal mode commands act on - selection, otherwise they operate on current file only; - - t - when included, <tab> (thus <c-i>) behave as <space> and - switches active pane, otherwise <tab> and <c-i> go forward in - the view history. It's possible to make both <tab> and <c-i> to - work as expected by setting up the terminal to emit a custom se- - quence when <c-i> is pressed; see :histnext for details. - - 'cvoptions' - type: set - default: - Specifies whether entering/leaving custom views triggers events - that normally happen on entering/leaving directories: - - autocmds - trigger autocommands on entering/leaving custom - views; - - localopts - reset local options on entering/leaving custom - views; - - localfilter - reset local filter on entering/leaving custom - views. - - 'deleteprg' - type: string - default: "" - Specifies program to run on files that are permanently removed. - When empty, files are removed as usual, otherwise this command - is invoked on each file by appending its name. If the command - doesn't remove files, they will remain on the file system. - - 'dirsize' - type: enumeration - default: size - Controls how size of directories is displayed in file views. - The following values are possible: - - size - size of directory (i.e., size used to store list of - files) - - nitems - number of entries in the directory (excluding . and - ..) - - Size obtained via ga/gA overwrites this setting so seeing count - of files and occasionally size of directories is possible. - - 'dotdirs' - type: set - default: nonrootparent - Controls displaying of dot directories. The following values - are possible: - - rootparent - show "../" in root directory of file system - - nonrootparent - show "../" in non-root directories of file - system - - Note that empty directories always contain "../" entry regard- - less of value of this option. "../" disappears at the moment at - least one file is created. - - 'dotfiles' - type: boolean - default: false - Whether dot files are shown in the view. Can be controlled with - z* bindings. - - 'fastrun' - type: boolean - default: false - With this option turned on you can run partially entered com- - mands with unambiguous beginning using :! (e.g. :!Te instead of - :!Terminal or :!Te<tab>). - - 'fillchars' 'fcs' - type: string list - default: "" - Sets characters used to fill borders. - - item default used for - vborder:c ' ' left, middle and right vertical bor- - ders - - If value is omitted, its default value is used. Example: - - set fillchars=vborder:. - - 'findprg' - type: string - default: "find %s %a -print , -type d \( ! -readable -o ! -exe- - cutable \) -prune" - Specifies format for an external command to be invoked by the - :find command. The format supports expansion of macros specific - for this particular option and %% sequence for inserting percent - sign literally. The macros are: - - macro value/meaning - %s literal arguments of :find or - list of paths to search in - - %A empty or - literal arguments of :find - %a empty or - literal arguments of :find or - predicate followed by escaped arguments of :find - %p empty or - literal arguments of :find or - escaped arguments (parameters) of :find - - %u redirect output to custom view instead of showing a - menu - %U redirect output to unsorted custom view instead of - showing a menu - - Predicate in %a is "-name" on *nix and "-iname" on Windows. - - If both %u and %U are specified, %U is chosen. - - Some macros can be added implicitly: - - if %s isn't present, it's appended - - if neither of %a, %A and %p is present, %a is appended - - if neither of %s, %a, %A and %p is present, %s and %a are ap- - pended in this order - - The macros slightly change their meaning depending on format of - :find's arguments: - - if the first argument points to an existing directory, %s is - assigned all arguments while %a, %A and %p are left empty - - otherwise: - - %s is assigned a dot (".") meaning current directory or - list of selected file names, if any - - %a, %A and %p are assigned literal arguments when first - argument starts with a dash ("-"), otherwise %a gets an escaped - version of the arguments with a predicate and %p contains es- - caped version of the arguments - - Starting with Windows Server 2003 a `where` command is avail- - able. One can configure vifm to use it in the following way: - - set findprg="where /R %s %A" - - As the syntax of this command is rather limited, one can't use - :find command with selection of more than one item because the - command ignores all directory paths except for the last one. - - When using find port on Windows, another option is to setup - 'findprg' like this: - - set findprg="find %s %a" - - - 'followlinks' - type: boolean - default: true - Follow links on l or Enter. That is navigate to destination - file instead of treating the link as if it were target file. - Doesn't affects links to directories, which are always entered - (use gf key for directories). - - 'fusehome' - type: string - default: "($XDG_DATA_HOME/.local/share | $VIFM)/fuse/" - Directory to be used as a root dir for FUSE mounts. Value of - the option can contain environment variables (in form "$en- - vname"), which will be expanded (prepend it with a slash to pre- - vent expansion). The value should expand to an absolute path. - - If you change this option, vifm won't remount anything. It af- - fects future mounts only. See "Automatic FUSE mounts" section - below for more information. - - 'gdefault' 'gd' - type: boolean - default: false - When on, 'g' flag is on for :substitute by default. - - 'grepprg' - type: string - default: "grep -n -H -I -r %i %a %s" - Specifies format for an external command to be invoked by the - :grep command. The format supports expanding of macros, spe- - cific for a particular *prg option, and %% sequence for insert- - ing percent sign literally. This option should include the %i - macro to specify placement of "-v" string when inversion of re- - sults is requested, %a or %A macro to specify placement of argu- - ments passed to the :grep command and the %s macro to specify - placement of list of files to search in. If some of the macros - are not used, they will be implicitly added after a space to the - value of the 'grepprg' option in the following order: %i, %a, - %s. Note that when neither %a nor %A are specified, it's %a - which is added implicitly. - - Optional %u or %U macro could be used (if both specified %U is - chosen) to force redirection to custom or unsorted custom view - respectively. - - See 'findprg' option for description of difference between %a - and %A. - - Example of setup to use ack (http://beyondgrep.com/) instead of - grep: - - set grepprg='ack -H -r %i %a %s' - - or The Silver Searcher (https://github.com/ggreer/the_sil- - ver_searcher): - - set grepprg='ag --line-numbers %i %a %s' - - - - 'histcursor' - type: set - default: startup,dirmark,direnter - Defines situations when cursor should be moved according to di- - rectory history: - - startup - on loading file lists during startup - - dirmark - after navigating to a mark that doesn't specify - file - - direnter - on opening directory from a file list - - This option has no effect when 'autochpos' is disabled. - - Note that the list is not exhaustive and there are other situa- - tions when cursor is positioned automatically. - - 'history' 'hi' - type: integer - default: 15 - Maximum number of stored items in all histories. - - 'hlsearch' 'hls' - type: boolean - default: true - Highlight all matches of search pattern. - - 'iec' type: boolean - default: false - Use KiB, MiB, ... suffixes instead of K, M, ... when printing - size in human-friendly format. - - 'ignorecase' 'ic' - type: boolean - default: false - Ignore case in search patterns (:substitute, / and ? commands) - and characters after f and F commands. It doesn't affect file - filtering. - - 'incsearch' 'is' - type: boolean - default: false - When this option is set, search and view update for local filter - is be performed starting from initial cursor position each time - search pattern is changed. - - 'iooptions' - type: set - default: - Controls details of file operations. The following values are - available: - - fastfilecloning - perform fast file cloning (copy-on-write), - when available - (available on Linux and btrfs file system). - - 'laststatus' 'ls' - type: boolean - default: true - Controls if status bar is visible. - - 'lines' - type: integer - default: terminal height on startup - Terminal height in lines. - - 'locateprg' - type: string - default: "locate %a" - Specifies format for an external command to be invoked by the - :locate command. The format supports expanding of macros, spe- - cific for a particular *prg option, and %% sequence for insert- - ing percent sign literally. This option should include the %a - macro to specify placement of arguments passed to the :locate - command. If the macro is not used, it will be implicitly added - after a space to the value of this option. - - Optional %u or %U macro could be used (if both specified %U is - chosen) to force redirection to custom or unsorted custom view - respectively. - - 'mediaprg' - type: string - default: path to bundled script that supports udevil, udisks and - udisks2 - (using udisks2 requires python with dbus module in- - stalled) - OS X: path points to a python script that uses diskutil - {only for *nix} - Specifies command to be used to manage media devices. Used by - :media command. - - The command can be passed the following parameters: - - list -- list media - - mount {device} -- mount a device - - unmount {path} -- unmount given mount point - - The output of `list` subcommand is parsed in search of lines - that start with one of the following prefixes: - - device= - specifies device path (e.g., "/dev/sde") - - label= - specifies optional device label (e.g., "Memory - card") - - info= - specifies arbitrary text to display next to - device (by - default "[label]" is used, if label is pro- - vided) - - mount-point= - specifies a mount point (can be absent or ap- - pear more than once) - - All other lines are ignored. Each `device=` starts a new sec- - tion describing a device which should include two other possible - prefixes. - - `list` subcommand is assumed to always succeed, while exit code - of `mount` and `unmount` is taken into account to determine - whether operation was performed successfully. - - 'lsoptions' - type: string list - default: "" - scope: local - - Configures ls-like view. - - item used for - transposed filling view grid by columns rather than by - lines - - - 'lsview' - type: boolean - default: false - scope: local - When this option is set, directory view will be displayed in - multiple columns with file names similar to output of `ls -x` - command. See "ls-like view" section below for format descrip- - tion. This option has no effect if 'millerview' is on. - - 'milleroptions' - type: string list - default: "lsize:1,csize:1,rsize:1,rpreview:dirs" - scope: local - - Configures miller view. - - item default used for - lsize:num 0 left column - csize:num 1 center column (can't be disabled) - rsize:num 0 right column - rpreview:str dirs right column - - *size specifies ratios of columns. Each ratio is in the range - from 0 to 100 and values are adjusted to fit the limits. Zero - disables a column, but central (main) column can't be disabled. - - rpreview specifies what file-system objects should be previewed - in the right column and can take two values: dirs (only directo- - ries) or all. Both options don't include parent directory - (".."). - - Example of two-column mode which is useful in combination with - :view command: - - set milleroptions=lsize:1,csize:2 - - - 'millerview' - type: boolean - default: false - scope: local - When this option is set, directory view will be displayed in - multiple cascading columns. Ignores 'lsview'. - - 'mintimeoutlen' - type: integer - default: 150 - The fracture of 'timeoutlen' in milliseconds that is waited be- - tween subsequent input polls, which affects various asynchronous - operations (detecting changes made by external applications, - monitoring background jobs, redrawing UI). There are no strict - guarantees, however the higher this value is, the less is CPU - load in idle mode. - - 'number' 'nu' - type: boolean - default: false - scope: local - Print line number in front of each file name when 'lsview' op- - tion is turned off. Use 'numberwidth' to control width of line - number. Also see 'relativenumber'. - - 'numberwidth' 'nuw' - type: integer - default: 4 - scope: local - Minimal number of characters for line number field. - - 'previewprg' - type: string - default: "" - scope: local - - External command to be used instead of preview programs config- - ured via :fileviewer command. - - Example: - - " always show git log in preview of files inside some repository - au DirEnter '~/git-repo/**/*' setl previewprg='git log --color -- %c 2>&1' - - 'quickview' - type: boolean - default: false - Whether quick view (:view) is currently active or not. - - 'relativenumber' 'rnu' - type: boolean - default: false - scope: local - Print relative line number in front of each file name when - 'lsview' option is turned off.

Various combinations of 'number' and - 'relativenumber' lead to such results: - - nonumber number - - norelativenumber | first | 1 first - | second | 2 second - | third | 3 third - - relativenumber | 1 first | 1 first - | 0 second |2 second - | 1 third | 1 third - - - 'rulerformat' 'ruf' - type: string - default: "%l/%S " - Determines the content of the ruler. Its minimal width is 13 - characters and it's right aligned. Following macros are sup- - ported: - %= - separation point between left and right aligned halves of - the line - %l - file number - %L - total number of files in view (including filtered out - ones) - %x - number of files excluded by filters - %0- - old name for %x macro - %S - number of displayed files - %= - separation point between left and right align items - %% - percent sign - %[ - designates beginning of an optional block - %] - designates end of an optional block - - Percent sign can be followed by optional minimum field width. - Add '-' before minimum field width if you want field to be right - aligned. - - Example: - - set rulerformat='%2l-%S%[ +%x%]' - - 'runexec' - type: boolean - default: false - Run executable file on Enter or l. - - 'scrollbind' 'scb' - type: boolean - default: false - When this option is set, vifm will try to keep difference of - scrolling positions of two windows constant. - - 'scrolloff' 'so' - type: integer - default: 0 - Minimal number of screen lines to keep above and below the cur- - sor. If you want cursor line to always be in the middle of the - view (except at the beginning or end of the file list), set this - option to some large value (e.g. 999). - - 'shell' 'sh' - type: string - default: $SHELL or "/bin/sh" or "cmd" (on MS-Windows) - Full path to the shell to use to run external commands. On *nix - a shell argument can be supplied. - - 'shellcmdflag' 'shcf' - type: string - default: "-c" or "/C" (for cmd.exe on MS-Windows) - Command-line option used to pass a command to 'shell'. It's - used in contexts where command comes from the user. - - 'shortmess' 'shm' - type: charset - default: "p" - Contains a sequence of single-character flags. Each flag en- - ables shortening of some message displayed by vifm in the TUI. - Flags: - - L - display only last directory in tab line instead of full - path. - - M - shorten titles in windows of terminal multiplexers cre- - ated by vifm down to file name instead of using full path. - - T - truncate status-bar messages in the middle if they are - too long to fit on the command line. "..." will appear in the - middle. - - p - use tilde shortening in view titles. - - - 'showtabline' 'stal' - type: enumeration - default: multiple - Specifies when tab line should be displayed. Possible values: - - never - never display tab line - - multiple - show tab line only when there are at least two - tabs - - always - display tab line always - - Alternatively 0, 1 and 2 Vim-like values are also accepted and - correspond to "never", "multiple" and "always" respectively. - - - 'sizefmt' - type: string list - default: "units:iec" - Configures the way size is formatted in human-friendly way. - - item value meaning - units: iec Use 1024 byte units (K or KiB, - etc.). - See 'iec' option. - si Use 1000 byte units (KB, etc.). - precision: i > 0 How many fraction digits to con- - sider. - {not set} Precision of 1 for integer part - < 10, - 0 otherwise (provides old behav- - iour). - space {present} Insert space before unit sym- - bols. - This is the default. - nospace {present} Do not insert space before unit - symbols. - - Numbers are rounded from zero. Trailing zeros are dropped. - - Example: - - set sizefmt=units:iec,precision:2,nospace - - - 'slowfs' - type: string list - default: "" - only for *nix - A list of mounter fs name beginnings (first column in /etc/mtab - or /proc/mounts) or paths prefixes for fs/directories that work - too slow for you. This option can be used to stop vifm from - making some requests to particular kinds of file systems that - can slow down file browsing. Currently this means don't check - if directory has changed, skip check if target of symbolic links - exists, assume that link target located on slow fs to be a di- - rectory (allows entering directories and navigating to files via - gf). If you set the option to "*", it means all the systems are - considered slow (useful for cygwin, where all the checks might - render vifm very slow if there are network mounts). - - Example for autofs root /mnt/autofs: - - set slowfs+=/mnt/autofs - - 'smartcase' 'scs' - type: boolean - default: false - Overrides the ignorecase option if the search pattern contains - at least one upper case character. Only used when ignorecase - option is enabled.

That's why if one wants sorting - algorithm to mix directories and files, "dir" should be appended - to sorting option, for example like this: - - set sort+=dir - - or - - set sort=-size,dir - - Value of the option is checked to include dir key and default - sorting key (name on *nix, iname on Windows). Here is what hap- - pens if one of them is missing: - - - type key is added at the beginning; - - - default key is added at the end; - - all other keys are left untouched (at most they are moved). - - This option also changes view columns according to primary sort- - ing key set, unless 'viewcolumns' option is not empty. - - 'sortnumbers' - type: boolean - default: false - scope: local - Natural sort of (version) numbers within text. - - 'sortgroups' - type: string - default: "" - scope: local - Sets comma-separated list of regular expressions to use for - group sorting, double comma is literal comma. Each expression - should contain at least one group or its value will be consid- - ered to be always empty. Only first match of each regular ex- - pression is considered. Groups are considered from right to - first similar to 'sort', first group divides list of files into - sub-groups, each of which is sorted by the second group and so - on. - - Example: - set sortgroups=-(done|todo).* - this would put files with "-done" in their names above all files - with "-todo". - - 'sortorder' - type: enumeration - default: ascending - Sets sort order for primary key: ascending, descending. - - 'statusline' 'stl' - type: string - default: "" - Determines the content of the status line (the line right above - command-line). Empty string means use same format like in pre- - vious versions. Following macros are supported: - - - %t - file name (considering value of the 'classify' option) - - - %T - symbolic link target (empty for other filetypes) - - - %f - file name relative to current directory (considers 'clas- - sify') - - - %A - file attributes (permissions on *nix or properties on - Windows) %u - user name or uid (if it cannot be resolved) - - - %g - group name or gid (if it cannot be resolved) - - - %s - file size in human readable format - - - %E - size of selected files in human readable format, same as - %s when no files are selected, except that it will never show - size of ../ in visual mode, since it cannot be selected - - - %d - file modification date (uses 'timefmt' option) - - - %D - path of the other pane for single-pane layout - - - %a - amount of free space available at current partition - - - %z - short tips/tricks/hints that chosen randomly after one - minute period - - - %{<expr>} - evaluate arbitrary vifm expression '<expr>', e.g. - '&sort' - - - %* - resets or applies one of User1..User9 highlight groups; - reset happens when width field is 0 or not specified, one of - groups gets picked when width field is in the range from 1 to - 9 - - - all 'rulerformat' macros - - Percent sign can be followed by optional minimum field width. - Add '-' before minimum field width if you want field to be right - aligned. - - On Windows file properties include the following flags (upper - case means flag is on): - A - archive - H - hidden - I - content isn't indexed - R - readonly - S - system - C - compressed - D - directory - E - encrypted - P - reparse point (e.g. symbolic link) - Z - sparse file - - Example without colors: - - set statusline=" %t%= %A %10u:%-7g %15s %20d %{&sort} " - - Example with colors: - - highlight User1 ctermbg=yellow - highlight User2 ctermbg=blue ctermfg=white cterm=bold - set statusline="%1* %-26t %2* %= %1* %A %2* %7u:%-7g %1* %-5s %2* %d " - - - 'suggestoptions' - type: string list - default: - Controls when, for what and how suggestions are displayed. The - following values are available: - - normal - in normal mode; - - visual - in visual mode; - - view - in view mode; - - otherpane - use other pane to display suggestions, when - available; - - delay[:num] - display suggestions after a small delay (to - do not annoy if you just want to type a fast shortcut consisting - of multiple keys), num specifies the delay in ms (500 by de- - fault), 'timeoutlen' at most; - - keys - include shortcuts (commands and selectors); - - foldsubkeys - fold multiple keys with common prefix; - - marks - include marks; - - registers[:num] - include registers, at most num files (5 by - default). - - 'syncregs' - type: string - default: - Specifies identifier of group of instances that share registers - between each other. When several instances of vifm have this - option set to identical value, they automatically synchronize - contents of their registers on operations which use them. - - 'syscalls' - type: boolean - default: false - When disabled, vifm will rely on external applications to per- - form file-system operations, otherwise system calls are used in- - stead (much faster and supports progress tracking). The option - should eventually be removed. Mostly *nix-like systems are af- - fected. - - 'tabscope' - type: enumeration - default: global - Picks style of tabs, which defines what a single tab contains. - Possible values: - - global - tab describes complete UI of two views and how they - are arranged - - pane - tab is located "inside" a pane and manages it and - quick view - - 'tabstop' 'ts' - type: integer - default: value from curses library - Number of spaces that a Tab in the file counts for. - - 'timefmt' - type: string - default: "%m/%d %H:%M" - Format of time in file list. See "man 1 date" or "man 3 strf- - time" for details. - - 'timeoutlen' 'tm' - type: integer - default: 1000 - The time in milliseconds that is waited for a mapped key in case - of already typed key sequence is ambiguous. - - 'title' - type: boolean - default: true when title can be restored, false otherwise - When enabled, title of the terminal or terminal multiplexer's - window is updated according to current location. Because not - all terminals support setting title, this works only if `$TERM` - value matches one of the following conditions: - - equals "xterm" or starts with "xterm-" - - equals "rxvt" or starts with "rxvt-" - - equals "screen" or starts with "screen-" - - equals "aterm" - - equals "Eterm" - - 'trash' - type: boolean - default: true - Use trash directory. See "Trash directory" section below. - - 'trashdir' - type: string - default: on *nix: - "%r/.vifm-Trash-%u,$VIFM/Trash,%r/.vifm-Trash" - or if $VIFM/Trash doesn't exist - "%r/.vifm-Trash-%u,$XDG_DATA_HOME/vifm/Trash,%r/.vifm-Trash" - on Windows: - "%r/.vifm-Trash,$XDG_DATA_HOME/vifm/Trash" - List of trash directory path specifications, separated with com- - mas. Each list item either defines an absolute path to trash - directory or a path relative to a mount point root when list el- - ement starts with "%r/". Value of the option can contain envi- - ronment variables (of form "$envname"), which will be expanded - (prepend $ with a slash to prevent expansion). Environment - variables are expanded when the option is set. - - On *nix, if element ends with "%u", the mark is replaced with - real user ID and permissions are set so that only that only - owner is able to use it. - Note that even this setup is not completely secure when combined - with "%r/" and it's overall safer to keep files in home direc- - tory, but that implies cost of copying files between partitions. - - When new file gets cut (deleted) vifm traverses each element of - the option in the order of their appearance and uses first trash - directory that it was able to create or that is already - writable. - - Default value tries to use trash directory per mount point and - falls back to ~/.vifm/Trash on failure. - - Will attempt to create the directory if it does not exist. See - "Trash directory" section below. - - 'tuioptions' 'to' - type: charset - default: "ps" - Each flag configures some aspect of TUI appearance. The flags - are: - p - when included: - * file list inside a pane gets additional single character - padding on left and right sides; - * quick view and view mode get single character padding. - s - when included, left and right borders (side borders, hence - "s" character) are visible. - u - use Unicode characters in the TUI (Unicode ellipsis instead - of "..."). - - 'undolevels' 'ul' - type: integer - default: 100 - Maximum number of changes that can be undone. Note that here - single file operation is used as a unit, not operation, i.e. - deletion of 101 files will exceed default limit. - - 'vicmd' - type: string - default: "vim" - Command used to edit files in various contexts. Ampersand sign - at the end (regardless whether it's preceded by space or not) - means backgrounding of command. - - Background flag is ignored in certain context where vifm waits - for the editor to finish. Such contexts include any command - that spawns editor to change list of file names or a command, - with :rename being one example. `-f` is also appended to pre- - vent forking in such cases, so the command needs to handle the - flag. - - Additionally `+{num}` and `+'call cursor()'` arguments are used - to position cursor when location is known. - - 'viewcolumns' - type: string - default: "" - scope: local - Format string containing list of columns in the view. When this - option is empty, view columns to show are chosen automatically - using sorting keys (see 'sort') as a base. Value of this option - is ignored if 'lsview' is set. See "Column view" section below - for format description. - - An example of setting the options for both panes (note :windo - command): - - windo set viewcolumns=-{name}..,6{size},11{perms} - - 'vixcmd' - type: string - default: value of 'vicmd' - Same as 'vicmd', but takes precedence over it when running in- - side a graphical environment. - - 'vifminfo' - type: set - default: bookmarks,bmarks - Controls what will be saved in the $VIFM/vifminfo file. - - bmarks - named bookmarks - bookmarks - marks, except special ones like '< and '> - tui - state of the user interface (sorting, number of - windows, quick - view state, active view) - dhistory - directory history - state - file name and dot filters and terminal multiplex- - ers integration - state - cs - primary color scheme - savedirs - save last visited directory (requires dhistory) - chistory - command line history - shistory - search history (/ and ? commands) - phistory - prompt history - fhistory - history of local filter (see description of the - "=" normal mode - command) - dirstack - directory stack overwrites previous stack, unless - stack of - current session is empty - registers - registers content - options - all options that can be set with the :set command - (obsolete) - filetypes - associated programs and viewers (obsolete) - commands - user defined commands (see :command description) - (obsolete) - - 'vimhelp' - type: boolean - default: false - Use vim help format. - - 'wildmenu' 'wmnu' - type: boolean - default: false - Controls whether possible matches of completion will be shown - above the command line. - - 'wildstyle' - type: enumeration - default: bar - Picks presentation style of wild menu. Possible values: - - bar - one-line with left-to-right cursor - - popup - multi-line with top-to-bottom cursor - - 'wordchars' - type: string list - default: "1-8,14-31,33-255" (that is all non-whitespace charac- - ters) - Specifies which characters in command-line mode should be con- - sidered as part of a word. Value of the option is comma-sepa- - rated list of ranges. If both endpoints of a range match, sin- - gle endpoint is enough (e.g. "a" = "a-a"). Both endpoints are - inclusive. There are two accepted forms: character representing - itself or number encoding character according to ASCII table. - In case of ambiguous characters (dash, comma, digit) use numeric - form. Accepted characters are in the range from 0 to 255. Any - Unicode character with code greater than 255 is considered to be - part of a word. - - The option affects Alt-D, Alt-B and Alt-F, but not Ctrl-W. This - is intentionally to allow two use cases: - - - Moving by WORDS and deletion by words. - - Moving by words and deletion by WORDS. - - To get the latter use the following mapping: - - cnoremap <c-w> <a-b><a-d> - - Also used for abbreviations. - - 'wrap' type: boolean - default: true - Controls whether to wrap text in quick view. - - 'wrapscan' 'ws' - type: boolean - default: true - Searches wrap around end of the list. - -Mappings - Map arguments - - LHS of mappings can be preceded by arguments which take the form of - special sequences: - - <silent> - Postpone UI updates until RHS is completely processed. - - <wait> In case of builtin mapping causing conflict for a user-defined - mapping (e.g., `t` builtin to a partially typed `ta` user-de- - fined mapping), ignore the builtin mapping and wait for input - indefinitely as opposed to default behaviour of triggering the - builtin mapping after a delay defined by 'timeoutlen'. Example: - - nnoremap <wait> tw :set wrap!<cr> - nnoremap <wait> tn :set number!<cr> - nnoremap <wait> tr :set relativenumber!<cr> - - Special sequences - - Since it's not easy to enter special characters there are several spe- - cial sequences that can be used in place of them. They are: - - <cr> Enter key. - - <esc> Escape key. - - <space> - Space key. - - <lt> Less-than character (<). - - <nop> provides a way to disable a mapping (by mapping it to <nop>). - - <bs> Backspace key (see key conflict description below). - - <tab> <s-tab> - Tabulation and Shift+Tabulation keys. - - <home> <end> - Home/End. - - <left> <right> <up> <down> - Arrow keys. - - <pageup> <pagedown> - PageUp/PageDown. - - <del> <delete> - Delete key. <del> and <delete> mean different codes, but - <delete> is more common. - - <insert> - Insert key. - - <c-a>,<c-b>,...,<c-z>,<c-[>,<c->,<c-]>,<c-^>,<c-_> - Control + some key (see key conflict description below). - - <c-@> only for *nix - Control + Space. - - <a-a>,<a-b>,...,<a-z> - <m-a>,<m-b>,...,<m-z> Alt + some key. - - <a-c-a>,<a-c-b>,...,<a-c-z> - <m-c-a>,<m-c-b>,...,<m-c-z> only for *nix - Alt + Ctrl + some key. - - <f0> - <f63> - Functional keys. - - <c-f1> - <c-f12> - only for MS-Windows - functional keys with Control key pressed. - - <a-f1> - <a-f12> - only for MS-Windows - functional keys with Alt key pressed. - - <s-f1> - <s-f12> - only for MS-Windows - functional keys with Shift key pressed. - - Note that due to the way terminals process their input, several key- - board keys might be mapped to single key code, for example: - - - <cr> and <c-m>; - - - <tab> and <c-i>; - - - <c-h> and <bs>; - - - etc. - - Most of the time they are defined consistently and don't cause sur- - prises, but <c-h> and <bs> are treated differently in different envi- - ronments (although they match each other all the time), that's why they - correspond to different keys in vifm. As a consequence, if you map <c- - h> or <bs> be sure to repeat the mapping with the other one so that it - works in all environments. Alternatively, provide your mapping in one - form and add one of the following: - - " if mappings with <c-h> in the LHS work - map <c-h> <bs> - " if mappings with <bs> in the LHS work - map <bs> <c-h> - - Whitespace - - vifm removes whitespace characters at the beginning and end of com- - mands. That's why you may want to use <space> at the end of rhs in - mappings. For example: - - cmap <f1> man<space> - - will put "man " in line when you hit the <f1> key in the command line - mode. - -Expression syntax - Supported expressions is a subset of what VimL provides. - - Expression syntax summary, from least to most significant: - - expr1 expr2 - expr2 || expr2 .. logical OR - - expr2 expr3 - expr3 && expr3 .. logical AND - - expr3 expr4 - expr4 == expr4 equal - expr4 != expr4 not equal - expr4 > expr4 greater than - expr4 >= expr4 greater than or equal - expr4 < expr4 smaller than - expr4 <= expr4 smaller than or equal - - expr4 expr5 - expr5 + expr5 .. number addition - expr5 - expr5 .. number subtraction - - expr5 expr6 - expr6 . expr6 .. string concatenation - - expr6 expr7 - - expr6 unary minus - + expr6 unary plus - ! expr6 logical NOT - - expr7 number number constant - "string" string constant, \ is special - 'string' string constant, ' is doubled - &option option value - $VAR environment variable - v:var builtin variable - function(expr1, ...) function call - (expr1) nested expression - - ".." indicates that the operations in this level can be concatenated. - - expr1 - ----- - expr2 || expr2 - - Arguments are converted to numbers before evaluation. - - Result is non-zero if at least one of arguments is non-zero. - - It's right associative and with short-circuiting, so sub-expressions - are evaluated from left to right until result of whole expression is - determined (i.e., until first non-zero) or end of the expression. - - expr2 - ----- - expr3 && expr3 - - Arguments are converted to numbers before evaluation. - - Result is non-zero only if both arguments are non-zero. - - It's right associative and with short-circuiting, so sub-expressions - are evaluated from left to right until result of whole expression is - determined (i.e., until first zero) or end of the expression. - - expr3 - ----- - expr4 {cmp} expr4 - - Compare two expr4 expressions, resulting in a 0 if it evaluates to - false or 1 if it evaluates to true. - - equal == - not equal != - greater than > - greater than or equal >= - smaller than < - smaller than or equal <= - - Examples: - - 'a' == 'a' == 1 - 'a' > 'b' == 1 - 'a' == 'b' == 0 - '2' > 'b' == 0 - 2 > 'b' == 1 - 2 > '1b' == 1 - 2 > '9b' == 0 - -1 == -'1' == 1 - 0 == '--1' == 1 - - expr4 - ----- - expr5 + expr5 .. number addition expr5 - expr5 .. number sub- - traction - - Examples: - - 1 + 3 - 3 == 1 - 1 + '2' == 3 - - expr5 - ----- - expr6 . expr6 .. string concatenation - - Examples: - - 'a' .

Checks for - various executable extensions on Windows. Returns boolean value de- - scribing result of the check. - - Example: - - " use custom default viewer script if it's available and installed - " in predefined system directory, otherwise try to find it elsewhere - if executable('/usr/local/bin/defviewer') - fileview * /usr/local/bin/defviewer %c - else - if executable('defviewer') - fileview * defviewer %c - endif - endif - - expand({expr}) - - Expands environment variables and macros in {expr} just like it's done - for command-line commands. Returns a string. See "Command macros" - section above. - - Examples: - - " percent sign - :echo expand('%%') - " the last part of directory name of the other pane - :echo expand('%D:t') - " $PATH environment variable (same as `:echo $PATH`) - :echo expand('$PATH') - - extcached({cache}, {path}, {extcmd}) - - Caches value of {extcmd} external command automatically updating it as - necessary based on monitoring change date of a {path}. The cache is - invalidated when file or its meta-data is updated. A single path can - have multiple caches associated with it. - - {path} value is normalized, but symbolic links in it aren't resolved. - - Example: - - " display number and size of blocks actually used by a file or directory - set statusline+=" Uses: %{ extcached('uses', - expand('%c'), - expand('stat --format=%%bx%%B %c')) }" - - filetype({fnum} [, {resolve}]) - - The result is a string, which represents file type and is one of the - list: - exe executables - reg regular files - link symbolic links - broken broken symbolic links (appears only when resolving) - dir directories - char character devices - block block devices - fifo pipes - sock *nix domain sockets - ? unknown file type (should not normally appear) - - The result can also be an empty string in case of invalid argument. - - Parameter {fnum} can have following values: - - '.' to get type of file under the cursor in the active pane - - numerical value base 1 to get type of file on specified line num- - ber - - Optional parameter {resolve} is treated as a boolean and specifies - whether symbolic links should be resolved. - - fnameescape({expr}) - - Escapes parameter to make it suitable for use as an argument of a :com- - mand. List of escaped characters includes %, which is doubled. - - Usage example: - - " navigate to most recently modified file in current directory - execute 'goto' fnameescape(system('ls -t | head -1')) - - getpanetype() - - Retrieves string describing type of current pane. Possible return val- - ues: - regular regular file listing of some directory - custom custom file list (%u) - very-custom very custom file list (%U) - tree tree view - - has({property}) - - Allows examining internal parameters from scripts to e.g. figure out - environment in which application is running. Returns 1 if property is - true/present, otherwise 0 is returned. Currently the following proper- - ties are supported (anything else will yield 0): - unix runs in *nix-like environment (including Cygwin) - win runs on Windows - - Usage example: - - " skip user/group on Windows - if !has('win') - let $RIGHTS = '%10u:%-7g ' - endif - - execute 'set' 'statusline=" %t%= %A '.$RIGHTS.'%15E %20d "' - - layoutis({type}) - - Checks whether current interface layout is {type} or not, where {type} - can be: - only single-pane mode - split double-pane mode (either vertical or horizon split) - vsplit vertical split (left and right panes) - hsplit horizontal split (top and bottom panes) - - Usage example: - - " automatically split vertically before enabling preview - :nnoremap w :if layoutis('only') | vsplit | endif | view!<cr> - - paneisat({loc}) - - Checks whether position of active pane in current layout matches one of - the following locations: - top pane reaches top border - bottom pane reaches bottom border - left pane reaches left border - right pane reaches right border - - system({command}) - - Runs the command in shell and returns its output (joined standard out- - put and standard error streams). All trailing newline characters are - stripped to allow easy appending to command output. Ctrl-C should in- - terrupt the command. - - Use this function to consume output of external commands that don't re- - quire user interaction and term() for interactive commands that make - use of terminal and are capable of handling stream redirection. - - Usage example: - - " command to enter .git/ directory of git-repository (when ran inside one) - command! cdgit :execute 'cd' system('git rev-parse --git-dir') - - tabpagenr([{arg}]) - - When called without arguments returns number of current tab page base - one. - - When called with "$" as an argument returns number of the last tab page - base one, which is the same as number of tabs. - - term({command}) - - Same as system() function, but user interface is shutdown during the - execution of the command, which makes sure that external interactive - applications won't affect the way terminal is used by vifm. - - Usage example: - - " command to change directory by picking it via fzf - command! fzfcd :execute 'cd' "'".term('find -type d | fzf 2> /dev/tty')."'" - -Menus and dialogs - When navigating to some path from a menu there is a difference in end - location depending on whether path has trailing slash or not. Files - normally don't have trailing slashes so "file/" won't work and one can - only navigate to a file anyway. On the other hand with directories - there are two options: navigate to a directory or inside of it. To al- - low both use cases, the first one is used on paths like "dir" and the - second one for "dir/". - - Commands - - :range navigate to a menu line. - - :exi[t][!] :q[uit][!] :x[it][!] - leave menu mode. - - :noh[lsearch] - reset search match highlighting. - - :w[rite] {dest} - write all menu lines into file specified by {dest}. - - General - - j, Ctrl-N - move down. - k, Ctrl-P - move up. - Enter, l - select and exit the menu. - Ctrl-L - redraw the menu. - - Escape, Ctrl-C, ZZ, ZQ, q - quit. - - In all menus - - The following set of keys has the same meaning as in normal mode. - - Ctrl-B, Ctrl-F - Ctrl-D, Ctrl-U - Ctrl-E, Ctrl-Y - /, ? - n, N - [count]G, [count]gg - H, M, L - zb, zt, zz - - zh - scroll menu items [count] characters to the right. - zl - scroll menu items [count] characters to the left. - zH - scroll menu items half of screen width characters to the right. - zL - scroll menu items half of screen width characters to the left. - - : - enter command line mode for menus (currently only :exi[t], :q[uit], - :x[it] and :{range} are supported). - - b - interpret content of the menu as list of paths and use it to create - custom view in place of previously active pane. See "Custom views" - section below. - B - same as above, but creates unsorted view. - - v - load menu content into quickfix list of the editor (Vim compatible - by assumption) or if list doesn't have separators after file names - (colons) open each line as a file name. - - - Below is description of additional commands and reaction on selection - in some menus and dialogs. - - Apropos menu - - Selecting menu item runs man on a given topic. Menu won't be closed - automatically to allow view several pages one by one. - - Command-line mode abbreviations menu - - Type dd on an abbreviation to remove it. - - c leaves menu preserving file selection and inserts right-hand side of - selected command into command-line. - - Color scheme menu - - Selecting name of a color scheme applies it the same way as if ":col- - orscheme <name>" was executed on the command-line. - - Commands menu - - Selecting command executes it with empty arguments (%a). - - dd on a command to remove. - - Marks menu - - Selecting mark navigates to it. - - dd on a mark to remove it. - - Bookmarks menu - - Selecting a bookmark navigates to it. - - Type dd on a bookmark to remove it. - - gf and e also work to make it more convenient to bookmark files. - - Trash (:lstrash) menu - - r on a file name to restore it from trash. - - dd deletes file under the cursor. - - Trashes menu - - dd empties selected trash in background. - - Directory history and Trashes menus - - Selecting directory name will change directory of the current view as - if :cd command was used. - - Directory stack menu - - Selecting directory name will rotate stack to put selected directory - pair at the top of the stack. - - Filetype menu - - Commands from vifmrc or typed in command-line are displayed above empty - line. All commands below empty line are from .desktop files. - - c leaves menu preserving file selection and inserts command after :! in - command-line mode. - - Grep, find, locate, bookmarks and user menu with navigation (%M macro) - - gf - navigate previously active view to currently selected item. - Leaves menu mode except for grep menu. Pressing Enter key has the same - effect. - - e - open selected path in the editor, stays in menu mode. - - c - leave menu preserving file selection and insert file name after :! - in command-line mode. - - User menu without navigation (%m macro) - - c leaves menu preserving file selection and inserts whole line after :! - in command-line mode. - - Grep menu - - Selecting file (via Enter or l key) opens it in editor set by 'vicmd' - at given line number. Menu won't be closed automatically to allow - viewing more than one result. - - See above for "gf" and "e" keys description. - - Command-line history menu - - Selecting an item executes it as command-line command, search query or - local filter. - - c leaves menu preserving file selection and inserts line into command- - line of appropriate kind. - - Volumes menu - - Selecting a drive navigates previously active pane to the root of that - drive. - - Fileinfo dialog - - Enter, q - close dialog - - Sort dialog - - h, Space - switch ascending/descending. - q - close dialog - - One shortcut per sorting key (see the dialog). - - Attributes (permissions or properties) dialog - - h, Space - check/uncheck. - q - close dialog - - Item states: - - - * - checked flag. - - - X - means that it has different value for files in selection. - - - d (*nix only) - (only for execute flags) means u-x+X, g-x+X or o-x+X - argument for the chmod program. If you're not on OS X and want to - remove execute permission bit from all files, but preserve it for di- - rectories, set all execute flags to 'd' and check 'Set Recursively' - flag. - - Jobs menu - - dd requests cancellation of job under cursor. The job won't be removed - from the list, but marked as being cancelled (if cancellation was suc- - cessfully requested). A message will pop up if the job has already - stopped. Note that on Windows cancelling external programs like this - might not work, because their parent shell doesn't have any windows. - - e key displays errors of selected job if any were collected. They are - displayed in a new menu, but you can get back to jobs menu by pressing - h. - - - Undolist menu - - r - reset undo position to group under the cursor. - - - Media menu - - Selecting a device either mounts (if it wasn't mounted yet) or navi- - gates to its first mount point. - - Selecting a mount point navigates to it. - - Selecting "not mounted" line causes mounting. - - Selecting any other line does nothing. - - r - reload the list. - - m - mount/unmount device (cursor should be positioned on lines under - device information). - - [ - put cursor on the previous device. - - ] - put cursor on the next device. - - -Custom views - Definition - - Normally file views contain list of files from a single directory, but - sometimes it's useful to populate them with list of files that do not - belong to the same directory, which is what custom views are for. - - Presentation - - Custom views are still related to directory they were in before custom - list was loaded. Path to that directory (original directory) can be - seen in the title of a custom view. - - Files in same directory have to be named differently, this doesn't hold - for custom views thus seeing just file names might be rather confusing. - In order to give an idea where files come from and when possible, rela- - tive paths to original directory of the view is displayed, otherwise - full path is used instead. - - Custom views normally don't contain any inexistent files. - - Navigation - - Custom views have some differences related to navigation in regular - views. - - gf - acts similar to gf on symbolic links and navigates to the file at - its real - location. - - h - go to closes parent node in tree view, otherwise return to the - original directory. - - gh - return to the original directory. - - Opening ".." entry also causes return to the original directory. - - History - - Custom list exists only while it's visible, once left one can't return - to it, so there is no appearances of it in any history. - - Filters - - Only local filter affects content of the view. This is intentional, - presumably if one loads list, precisely that list should be displayed - (except for inexistent paths, which are ignored). - - Search - - Although directory names are visible in listing, they are not search- - able. Only file names are taken into account (might be changed in fu- - ture, searching whole lines seems quite reasonable). - - Sorting - - Contrary to search sorting by name works on whole visible part of file - path. - - Highlight - - Whole file name is highlighted as one entity, even if there are direc- - tory elements. - - Updates - - Reloads can occur, though they are not automatic due to files being - scattered among different places. On a reload, inexistent files are - removed and meta-data of all other files is updated. - - Once custom view forgets about the file, it won't add it back even if - it's created again. So not seeing file previously affected by an oper- - ation, which was undone is normal. - - Operations - - All operations that add files are forbidden for custom views. For ex- - ample, moving/copying/putting files into a custom view doesn't work, - because it doesn't make much sense. - - On the other hand, operations that use files of a custom view as a - source (e.g. yanking, copying, moving file from custom view, deletion) - and operations that modify names are all allowed. - -Compare views - Kinds - - :compare can produce four different results depending on arguments: - - single compare view (ofone and either listall or listdups); - - single custom view (ofone and listunique); - - two compare views (ofboth and either listall or listdups); - - two custom views (ofboth and listunique). - - The first two display files of one file system tree. Here duplicates - are files that have at least one copy in the same tree. The other two - kinds of operation compare two trees, in which duplicates are files - that are found in both trees. - - Lists of unique files are presented in custom views because there is no - file grouping to preserve as all file ids are guaranteed to be dis- - tinct. - - Creation - - Arguments passed to :compare form four categories each with its own - prefix and is responsible for particular property of operation. - - Which files to compare: - - ofboth - compares files of two panes against each other; - - ofone - compares files of the same directory. - - How files are compared: - - byname - by their name only; - - bysize - only by their size; - - bycontents - by combination of size and hash of file contents. - - Which files to display: - - listall - all files; - - listunique - unique files only; - - listdups - only duplicated files. - - How results are grouped (has no effect if "ofone" specified): - - groupids - files considered identical are always adjacent in out- - put; - - grouppaths - file system ordering is preferred (this also enables - displaying identically named files as mismatches). - - Which files to omit: - - skipempty - ignore empty files. - - Each argument can appear multiple times, the rightmost one of the group - is considered. Arguments alter default behaviour instead of substitut- - ing it. - - Examples - - The defaults corresponds to probably the most common use case of com- - paring files in two trees with grouping by paths, so the following are - equivalent: - - :compare - :compare bycontents grouppaths - :compare bycontents listall ofboth grouppaths - - Another use case is to find duplicates in the current sub-tree: - - :compare listdups ofone - - The following command lists files that are unique to each pane: - - :compare listunique - - Look - - The view can't switch to ls-like view as it's unable to display diff- - like data. - - Comparison views have second column displaying id of the file, files - with same id are considered to be equal. The view columns configura- - tion is predefined. - - Behaviour - - When two views are being compared against each other the following - changes to the regular behaviour apply: - - views are scrolled synchronously (as if 'scrollbind' was set); - - views' cursors are synchronized; - - local filtering is disabled (its results wouldn't be meaningful); - - zd excludes groups of adjacent identical files, 1zd gives usual be- - haviour; - - sorting is permanently disabled (ordering is fixed); - - removed files hide their counter pairs; - - exiting one of the views terminates the other immediately; - - renaming files isn't blocked, but isn't taken into account and might - require regeneration of comparison; - - entries which indicate absence of equivalent file have empty names - and can be matched as such; - - when unique files of both views are listed custom views can be - empty, this absence of unique files is stated clearly. - - One compare view has similar properties (those that are applicable for - single pane). - - Files are gathered in this way: - - recursively starting at current location of the view; - - dot files are excluded if view hides them at the moment of compari- - son; - - directories are not taken into account; - - symbolic links to directories are ignored. - -Startup - On startup vifm determines several variables that are used during the - session. They are determined in the order they appear below. - - On *nix systems $HOME is normally present and used as is. On Windows - systems vifm tries to find correct home directory in the following or- - der: - - $HOME variable; - - $USERPROFILE variable (on Windows only); - - a combination of $HOMEDRIVE and $HOMEPATH variables (on Windows - only). - - vifm tries to find correct configuration directory by checking the fol- - lowing places: - - $VIFM variable; - - parent directory of the executable file (on Windows only); - - $HOME/.vifm directory; - - $APPDATA/Vifm directory (on Windows only); - - $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vifm directory; - - $HOME/.config/vifm directory. - - vifm tries to find correct configuration file by checking the following - places: - - $MYVIFMRC variable; - - vifmrc in parent directory of the executable file (on Windows only); - - $VIFM/vifmrc file. - -Configure - See "Startup" section above for the explanations on $VIFM and $MYV- - IFMRC. - - The vifmrc file contains commands that will be executed on vifm - startup. There are two such files: global and local. Global one is at - {prefix}/etc/vifm/vifmrc, see $MYVIFMRC variable description for the - search algorithm used to find local vifmrc. Global vifmrc is loaded - before the local one, so that the later one can redefine anything con- - figured globally. - - Use vifmrc to set settings, mappings, filetypes etc. To use multi line - commands precede each next line with a slash (whitespace before slash - is ignored, but all spaces at the end of the lines are saved). For ex- - ample: - - set - \smartcase - - equals "setsmartcase". When - - set<space here> - \ smartcase - - equals "set smartcase". - - The $VIFM/vifminfo file contains session settings. You may edit it by - hand to change the settings, but it's not recommended to do that, edit - vifmrc instead. You can control what settings will be saved in - vifminfo by setting 'vifminfo' option. Vifm always writes this file on - exit unless 'vifminfo' option is empty. Marks, bookmarks, commands, - histories, filetypes, fileviewers and registers in the file are merged - with vifm configuration (which has bigger priority). - - Generally, runtime configuration has bigger priority during merging, - but there are some exceptions: - - - directory stack stored in the file is not overwritten unless some- - thing is changed in vifm session that performs merge; - - - each mark or bookmark is marked with a timestamp, so that newer - value is not overwritten by older one, thus no matter from where it - comes, the newer one wins. - - The $VIFM/scripts directory can contain shell scripts. vifm modifies - its PATH environment variable to let user run those scripts without - specifying full path. All subdirectories of the $VIFM/scripts will be - added to PATH too. Script in a subdirectory overlaps script with the - same name in all its parent directories. - - The $VIFM/colors/ and {prefix}/etc/vifm/colors/ directories contain - color schemes. Available color schemes are searched in that order, so - on name conflict the one in $VIFM/colors/ wins. - - Each color scheme should have ".vifm" extension. This wasn't the case - before and for this reason the following rules apply during lookup: - - - if there is no file with .vifm extension, all regular files are - listed; - - - otherwise only files with .vifm extension are listed (with the ex- - tension being truncated). - -Automatic FUSE mounts - vifm has a builtin support of automated FUSE file system mounts. It is - implemented using file associations mechanism. To enable automated - mounts, one needs to use a specially formatted program line in filetype - or filextype commands. These use special macros, which differ from - macros in commands unrelated to FUSE. Currently three formats are sup- - ported: - - 1) FUSE_MOUNT This format should be used in case when all information - needed for mounting all files of a particular type is the same. E.g. - mounting of tar files don't require any file specific options. - - Format line: - FUSE_MOUNT|mounter %SOURCE_FILE %DESTINATION_DIR [%FOREGROUND] - - Example filetype command: - - :filetype FUSE_MOUNT|fuse-zip %SOURCE_FILE %DESTINATION_DIR - - 2) FUSE_MOUNT2 This format allows one to use specially formatted files - to perform mounting and is useful for mounting remotes, for example re- - mote file systems over ftp or ssh. - - Format line: - FUSE_MOUNT2|mounter %PARAM %DESTINATION_DIR [%FOREGROUND] - - Example filetype command: - - :filetype *.ssh FUSE_MOUNT2|sshfs %PARAM %DESTINATION_DIR - - Example file content: - - root@127.0.0.1:/ - - 3) FUSE_MOUNT3 - - This format is equivalent to FUSE_MOUNT, but omits unmounting. It is - useful for cases, when unmounting isn't needed, like when using AVFS. - - Example :filetype command: - - :filetype *.tar,*.tar.bz2,*.tbz2,*.tgz,*.tar.gz,*.tar.xz,*.txz,*.deb - \ {Mount with avfs} - \ FUSE_MOUNT3|mount-avfs %DESTINATION_DIR %SOURCE_FILE - - Example `mount-avfs` helper script: - - #!/bin/sh - - dest=$1 - file=$2 - - rmdir "$dest" - ln -s "$HOME/.avfs$file#/" "$dest" - - All % macros are expanded by vifm at runtime and have the following - meaning: - - %SOURCE_FILE is replaced by full path to selected file; - - %DESTINATION_DIR is replaced by full path to mount directory, which - is created by vifm basing on the value of 'fusehome' option; - - %PARAM value is filled from the first line of file (whole line), - though in the future it can be changed to whole file content; - - %FOREGROUND means that you want to run mount command as a regular - command (required to be able to provide input for communication with - mounter in interactive way). - - %FOREGROUND is an optional macro. Other macros are not mandatory, but - mount commands likely won't work without them. - - %CLEAR is obsolete name of %FOREGROUND, which is still supported, but - might be removed in future. Its use is discouraged. - - Unlike macros elsewhere, these are recognized only if they appear at - the end of a command or are followed by a space. There is no way to - escape % either. These are historical limitations, which might be ad- - dressed in the future. - - The mounted FUSE file systems will be automatically unmounted in two - cases: - - - when vifm quits (with ZZ, :q, etc. or when killed by signal); - - - when you explicitly leave mount point going up to its parent direc- - tory (with h, Enter on "../" or ":cd ..") and other pane is not in - the same directory or its child directories. - -View look - vifm supports displaying of file list view in two different ways: - - - in a table mode, when multiple columns can be set using 'view- - columns' option (see "Column view" section below for details); - - - in a multicolumn list manner which looks almost like `ls -x` com- - mand output (see "ls-like view" section below for details). - - The look is local for each view and can be chosen by changing value of - the 'lsview' boolean option. - - Depending on view look some of keys change their meaning to allow more - natural cursor moving. This concerns mainly h, j, k, l and other simi- - lar navigation keys. - - Also some of options can be ignored if they don't affect view display- - ing in selected look. For example value of 'viewcolumns' when 'lsview' - is set. - -ls-like view - When this view look is enabled by setting 'lsview' option on, vifm will - display files in multiple columns. Number of columns depends on the - length of the longest file name present in current directory of the - view. Whole file list is automatically reflowed on directory change, - terminal or view resize. - - View looks close to output of `ls -x` command, so files are listed left - to right in rows. - - In this mode file manipulation commands (e.g. d) don't work line-wise - like they do in Vim, since such operations would be uncommon for file - manipulation tasks. Thus, for example, dd will remove only current - file. - - By default the view is filled by lines, 'lsoptions' can be used to get - filling by columns. - - Note that tree-view and compare view inhibit ls-like view. - -Column view - View columns are described by a comma-separated list of column descrip- - tions, each of which has the following format - [ '-' ] [ fw ( [ '.' tw ] | '%' ) ] '{' type '}' '.'{0,3} - where fw stands for full width and tw stands for text width. - - So it basically consists of four parts: - 1. Optional alignment specifier - 2. Optional width specifier - 3. Mandatory column name - 4. Optional cropping specifier - - Alignment specifier - - It's an optional minus or asterisk sign as the first symbol of the - string. - - Specifies type of text alignment within a column. Three types are sup- - ported: - - - left align - - set viewcolumns=-{name} - - - right align (default) - - set viewcolumns={name} - - - dynamic align - - It's like left alignment, but when the text is bigger than the col- - umn, the alignment is made at the right (so the part of the field is - always visible). - - set viewcolumns=*{name} - - Width specifier - - It's a number followed by a percent sign, two numbers (second one - should be less than or equal to the first one) separated with a dot or - a single number. - - Specifies column width and its units. There are three size types: - - - absolute size - column width is specified in characters - - set viewcolumns=-100{name},20.15{ext} - - results in two columns with lengths of 100 and 20 and a reserved - space of five characters on the left of second column. - - - relative (percent) size - column width is specified in percents of - view width - - set viewcolumns=-80%{name},15%{ext},5%{mtime} - - results in three columns with lengths of 80/100, 15/100 and 5/100 of - view width. - - - auto size (default) - column width is automatically determined - - set viewcolumns=-{name},{ext},{mtime} - - results in three columns with length of one third of view width. - There is no size adjustment to content, since it will slow down ren- - dering. - - Columns of different sizing types can be freely mixed in one view. - Though sometimes some of columns can be seen partly or be completely - invisible if there is not enough space to display them. - - Column name - - This is just a sort key surrounded with curly braces or {root}, e.g. - - {name},{ext},{mtime} - - {name} and {iname} keys are the same and present both for consistency - with 'sort' option. - - Following keys don't have corresponding sorting keys: - - - {root} - display name without extension (as a complement for - {ext}) - - - {fileroot} - display name without extension for anything except for - directories and symbolic links to directories (as a complement for - {fileext}) - - Empty curly braces ({}) are replaced with the default secondary column - for primary sort key. So after the next command view will be displayed - almost as if 'viewcolumns' is empty, but adding ellipsis for long file - names: - - set viewcolumns=-{name}..,6{}. - - Cropping specifier - - It's from one to three dots after closing curly brace in column format. - - Specifies type of text truncation if it doesn't fit in the column. - Currently three types are supported: - - - truncation - text is truncated - - set viewcolumns=-{name}. - - results in truncation of names that are too long too fit in the - view. - - - adding of ellipsis - ellipsis on the left or right are added when - needed - - set viewcolumns=-{name}.. - - results in that ellipsis are added at the end of too long file - names. - - - none (default) - text can pass column boundaries - - set viewcolumns=-{name}...,{ext} - - results in that long file names can partially be written on the ext - column. - -Color schemes - The color schemes in vifm can be applied in two different ways: - - - as the primary color scheme; - - - as local to a pane color scheme. - - Both types are set using :colorscheme command, but of different forms: - - - :colorscheme color_scheme_name - for the primary color scheme; - - - :colorscheme color_scheme_name directory - for local color schemes. - - Look of different parts of the TUI (Text User Interface) is determined - in this way: - - - Border, TabLine, TabLineSel, TopLineSel, TopLine, CmdLine, Er- - rorMsg, StatusLine, JobLine, SuggestBox and WildMenu are always de- - termined by the primary color scheme; - - - CurrLine, Selected, Directory, Link, BrokenLink, Socket, Device, - Executable, Fifo, CmpMismatch, Win, AuxWin and OtherWin are deter- - mined by primary color scheme and a set of local color schemes, - which can be empty. - - There might be a set of local color schemes because they are structured - hierarchically according to file system structure. For example, having - the following piece of file system: - - ~ - `-- bin - | - `-- my - - Two color schemes: - - # ~/.vifm/colors/for_bin - highlight Win cterm=none ctermfg=white ctermbg=red - highlight CurrLine cterm=none ctermfg=red ctermbg=black - - # ~/.vifm/colors/for_bin_my - highlight CurrLine cterm=none ctermfg=green ctermbg=black - - And these three commands in the vifmrc file: - - colorscheme Default - colorscheme for_bin ~/bin - colorscheme for_bin_my ~/bin/my - - File list will look in the following way for each level: - - - ~/ - Default color scheme - black background - cursor with blue background - - - ~/bin/ - mix of Default and for_bin color schemes - red background - cursor with black background and red foreground - - - ~/bin/my/ - mix of Default, for_bin and for_bin_my color schemes - red background - cursor with black background and green foreground - -Trash directory - vifm has support of trash directory, which is used as temporary storage - for deleted files or files that were cut. Using trash is controlled by - the 'trash' option, and exact path to the trash can be set with - 'trashdir' option. Trash directory in vifm differs from the system- - wide one by default, because of possible incompatibilities of storing - deleted files among different file managers. But one can set - 'trashdir' to "~/.local/share/Trash" to use a "standard" trash direc- - tory. - - There are two scenarios of using trash in vifm: - - 1. As a place for storing files that were cut by "d" and may be in- - serted to some other place in file system. - - 2. As a storage of files, that are deleted but not purged yet. - - The first scenario uses deletion ("d") operations to put files to trash - and put ("p") operations to restore files from trash directory. Note - that such operations move files to and from trash directory, which can - be long term operations in case of different partitions or remote - drives mounted locally. - - The second scenario uses deletion ("d") operations for moving files to - trash directory and :empty command-line command to purge all previously - deleted files. - - Deletion and put operations depend on registers, which can point to - files in trash directory. Normally, there are no nonexistent files in - registers, but vifm doesn't keep track of modifications under trash di- - rectory, so one shouldn't expect value of registers to be absolutely - correct if trash directory was modified not by operation that are meant - for it. But this won't lead to any issues with operations, since they - ignore nonexistent files. - -Client-Server - vifm supports remote execution of command-line mode commands, remote - changing of directories and expression evaluation. This is possible - using --remote and --remote-expr command-line arguments. - - To execute a command remotely combine --remote argument with -c <com- - mand> or +<command>. For example: - - vifm --remote -c 'cd /' - vifm --remote '+cd /' - - To change directory not using command-line mode commands one can spec- - ify paths right after --remote argument, like this: - - vifm --remote / - vifm --remote ~ - vifm --remote /usr/bin /tmp - - Evaluating expression remotely might be useful to query information - about an instance, for example its location: - - vifm --remote-expr 'expand("%d")' - - If there are several running instances, the target can be specified - with --server-name option (otherwise, the first one lexicographically - is used): - - vifm --server-name work --remote ~/work/project - - List of names of running instances can be obtained via --server-list - option. Name of the current one is available via v:servername. - - - v:servername - server name of the running vifm instance. Empty if client- - server feature is disabled. - -Plugin - Plugin for using vifm in vim as a file selector. - - Commands: - - :EditVifm select a file or files to open in the current buffer. - :Vifm alias for :EditVifm. - :SplitVifm split buffer and select a file or files to open. - :VsplitVifm vertically split buffer and select a file or files to - open. - :DiffVifm select a file or files to compare to the current file - with - :vert diffsplit. - :TabVifm select a file or files to open in tabs. - - Each command accepts up to two arguments: left pane directory and right - pane directory. After arguments are checked, vifm process is spawned - in a special "file-picker" mode. To pick files just open them either - by pressing l, i or Enter keys, or by running :edit command. If no - files are selected, file under the cursor is opened, otherwise whole - selection is passed to the plugin and opened in vim. - - The plugin have only two settings. It's a string variable named - g:vifm_term to let user specify command to run GUI terminal. By de- - fault it's equal to 'xterm -e'. And another string variable named - g:vifm_exec, which equals "vifm" by default and specifies path to - vifm's executable. To pass arguments to vifm use g:vifm_exec_args, - which is empty by default. - - To use the plugin copy the vifm.vim file to either the system wide - vim/plugin directory or into ~/.vim/plugin. - - If you would prefer not to use the plugin and it is in the system wide - plugin directory add - - let loaded_vifm=1 - - to your ~/.vimrc file. - -Reserved - The following command names are reserved and shouldn't be used for user - commands. - - g[lobal] - v[global] - -ENVIRONMENT - VIFM Points to main configuration directory (usually ~/.vifm/). - - MYVIFMRC - Points to main configuration file (usually ~/.vifm/vifmrc). - - These environment variables are valid inside vifm and also can be used - to configure it by setting some of them before running vifm. - - When $MYVIFMRC isn't set, it's made as $VIFM/vifmrc (exception for Win- - dows: vifmrc in the same directory as vifm.exe has higher priority than - $VIFM/vifmrc). - - See "Startup" section above for more details. - - VIFM_FUSE_FILE - On execution of external commands this variable is set to the - full path of file used to initiate FUSE mount of the closes - mount point from current pane directory up. It's not set when - outside FUSE mount point. When vifm is used inside terminal - multiplexer, it tries to set this variable as well (it doesn't - work this way on its own). - -SEE ALSO - vifm-convert-dircolors(1), vifm-pause(1) - - Website: https://vifm.info/ - Wiki: https://wiki.vifm.info/ - - Esperanto translation of the documentation by Sebastian Cyprych: - http://cyprych.neostrada.pl/tekstoj/komputiloj/vifm-help.eo.html - -AUTHOR - Vifm was written by ksteen <ksteen@users.sourceforge.net> - And currently is developed by xaizek <xaizek@posteo.net> - - - -vifm 0.10.1 July 29, 2019 VIFM(1) diff --git a/.config/vifm/vifmrc b/.config/vifm/vifmrc deleted file mode 100644 index e419ef4..0000000 --- a/.config/vifm/vifmrc +++ /dev/null @@ -1,307 +0,0 @@ -" __ _____ _____ __ __ ____ ____ -" \ \ / /_ _| ___| \/ | _ \ / ___| -" \ \ / / | || |_ | |\/| | |_) | | -" \ V / | || _| | | | | _ <| |___ -" \_/ |___|_| |_| |_|_| \_\\____| -" - -" {{{ General config -" This is the actual command used to start vi.
