## Overview

## Dired Key bindings

While in Dired mode, some keys are remapped to do the following functions:

>         C)reate       - Create a new, empty file in the current
>                         directory.  You will be prompted to enter
>                         a name for the file.

>         F)ull menu    - Show a full menu of commands for currently
>                         selected file or directory.

>         M)odify       - Modify the name or location of selection.  If
>                         multiple files have been selected, you will
>                         only be able to change the location.  Choose
>                         between changing the name or location and then
>                         enter a new filename or path.

>         R)emove       - Delete currently selected files.

>         T)ag          - Tag the highlighted file.  Multiple files may
>                         be tagged and all other commands except "Create"
>                         will be performed on tagged files instead of the
>                         one highlighted.  Press “t” again to untag
>                         a file.

>         U)pload       - Upload a file to the current directory using
>                         one of the options listed in the upload screen.

## Other Key bindings

Some other keys useful in Dired mode:

>         D)ownload     - Download selection using options listed in
>                         the download options screen.

>         E)dit         - Spawn the editor defined in the Options Menu
>                         and load selection for editing.

## Notes

Dired mode must be activated at compile time. Otherwise, the above commands will not be available and Lynx will treat a directory listing as an HTML file.
