-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.

- 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.

- 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.
-

- 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.

-
-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.

- 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

- 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

- macros.
-
- :cd! /dir
- same as :cd /dir /dir.
-
- :cds
-

- 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-

- " 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

- 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

-
- :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

- - 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.

- 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.

- 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

-
- 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.

- given).
-
- :select {pattern}

- 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

-
-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

- size in human-friendly format.
-
- 'ignorecase' 'ic'

- 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:

- 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

- 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`

- tion. This option has no effect if 'millerview' is on.
-
- 'milleroptions'
- type: string list
- default: "lsize:1,csize:1,rsize:1,rpreview:dirs"

- 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,

- 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-

-
- '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. Use 'numberwidth' to control
- width of line number. 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'

-
- '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'

- 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. It doesn't affect file filtering.
-
- 'sort' type: string list
- default: +name on *nix and +iname on Windows
- scope: local
- Sets list of sorting keys (first item is primary key, second is
- secondary key, etc.):
- [+-]ext - extension of files and directories
- [+-]fileext - extension of files only
- [+-]name - name (including extension)
- [+-]iname - name (including extension, ignores case)
- [+-]type - file type
- (dir/reg/exe/link/char/block/sock/fifo)
- [+-]dir - directory grouping (directory < file)
- [+-]gid - group id (*nix only)
- [+-]gname - group name (*nix only)
- [+-]mode - file type derived from its mode (*nix only)
- [+-]perms - permissions string (*nix only)
- [+-]uid - owner id (*nix only)
- [+-]uname - owner name (*nix only)
- [+-]nlinks - number of hard links (*nix only)
- [+-]inode - inode number (*nix only)
- [+-]size - size
- [+-]nitems - number of items in a directory (zero for files)
- [+-]groups - groups extracted via regexps from 'sortgroups'
- [+-]target - symbolic link target (empty for other file
- types)
- [+-]atime - time accessed (e.g. read, executed)
- [+-]ctime - time changed (changes in metadata, e.g. mode)
- [+-]mtime - time modified (when file contents is changed)
-
- Note: look for st_atime, st_ctime and st_mtime in "man 2 stat"
- for more information on time keys.
-
- '+' means ascending sort for this key, and '-' means descending
- sort.
-
- "dir" key is somewhat similar in this regard but it's added im-
- plicitly: when "dir" is not specified, sorting behaves as if it
- was the first key in the list. 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)

- 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.
-

-
- 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' . 'b' == 'ab'
- 'aaa' . '' . 'c' == 'aaac'
-
- expr6
- -----
-
- - expr6 unary minus
- + expr6 unary plus
- ! expr6 logical NOT
-
- For '-' the sign of the number is changed.
- For '+' the number is unchanged.
- For '!' non-zero becomes zero, zero becomes one.
-
- A String will be converted to a Number first.
-
- These operations can be repeated and mixed. Examples:
-
- --9 == 9
- ---9 == -9
- -+9 == 9
- !-9 == 0
- !'' == 1

- 10000 == 10000
-
- string
- ------
- "string" string constant
-
- Note that double quotes are used.
-
- A string constant accepts these special characters:
- \b backspace <bs>
- \e escape <esc>
- \n newline
- \r return <cr>
- \t tab <tab>
- \\ backslash
- \" double quote
-
- Examples:
-
- "\"Hello,\tWorld!\""
- "Hi,\nthere!"
-
- literal-string
- --------------
- 'string' string constant
-
- Note that single quotes are used.
-
- This string is taken as it is. No backslashes are removed or have a
- special meaning. The only exception is that two quotes stand for one
- quote.
-
- Examples:
-
- 'All\slashes\are\saved.'
- 'This string contains doubled single quotes ''here'''
-
- option
- ------
- &option option value (local one is preferred, if exists)
- &g:option global option value &l:option local
- option value
-
- Examples:
-
- echo 'Terminal size: '.&columns.'x'.&lines
- if &columns > 100
-
- Any valid option name can be used here (note that "all" in ":set all"
- is a pseudo option). See ":set options" section above.
-
- environment variable
- --------------------
- $VAR environment variable
-
- The String value of any environment variable. When it is not defined,
- the result is an empty string.
-
- Examples:
-
- 'This is my $PATH env: ' . $PATH
- 'vifmrc at ' . $MYVIFMRC . ' is used.'
-
- builtin variable
- --------------------
- v:var builtin variable
-
- Information exposed by vifm for use in scripting.
-
- v:count
- count passed to : command, 0 by default. Can be used in mappings to
- pass
- count to a different command.
- v:count1
- same as v:count, but 1 by default.
- v:servername
- See below.
-
- function call
- -------------
- function(expr1, ...) function call
-
- See "Functions" section below.
-
- Examples:
-
- "'" . filetype('.') . "'"
- filetype('.') == 'reg'
-
- expression nesting
- ------------------
- (expr1) nested expression
-
- Groups any other expression of arbitrary complexity enforcing order in
- which operators are applied.

-Functions
- USAGE RESULT DESCRIPTION
-
- chooseopt({opt}) String Queries choose parameters passed on
- startup.
- executable({expr}) Integer Checks whether {expr} command avail-
- able.
- expand({expr}) String Expands special keywords in {expr}.
- extcached({cache}, {path}, {extcmd})
- String Caches output of {extcmd} per {cache}
- and
- {path} combination.
- filetype({fnum} [, {resolve}])
- String Returns file type from position.
- fnameescape({expr}) String Escapes {expr} for use in a :command.
- getpanetype() String Returns type of current pane.
- has({property}) Integer Checks whether instance has {prop-
- erty}.
- layoutis({type}) Integer Checks whether layout is of type
- {type}.
- paneisat({loc}) Integer Checks whether current pane is at
- {loc}.
- system({command}) String Executes shell command and returns
- its output.
- tabpagenr([{arg}]) Integer Returns number of current or last
- tab.
- term({command}) String Like system(), but for interactive
- commands.
-
- chooseopt({opt})
-
- Retrieves values of options related to file choosing. {opt} can be one
- of:
- files returns argument of --choose-files or empty string
- dir returns argument of --choose-dir or empty string
- cmd returns argument of --on-choose or empty string
- delimiter returns argument of --delimiter or the default one (\n)
-
- executable({expr})
-
- If {expr} is absolute or relative path, checks whether path destination
- exists and refers to an executable, otherwise checks whether command
- named {expr} is present in directories listed in $PATH. 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}.

-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).
