NAME

gitfm - GNU Interactive Tools File Manager

SYNTAX

gitfm [options] [path1] [path2]

DESCRIPTION

gitfm is a file system browser with some shell facilities which was designed to make your work easier and more efficient.

The GNUIT package also contains gitps, an interactive process viewer/killer and gitview, a hex/ascii file viewer.

More extensive documentation on gitfm and the other gnuit tools is available in info format, try ’info gnuit’.

OPTIONS

A summary of options is included below. For a complete description, see the Info files.

	-h		Show summary of options.
	-v		Show version of program.
	-c		Use ANSI colours.
	-b		Don’t use ANSI colours.
	-l		Don’t use last screen character.
	-p		Output the final path on exit

NOTE

The main configuration file of the GNUIT package is gnuitrc.TERM where TERM is the value of the environment variable ’ TERM ’ e.g for Linux console your environment contains something like ’ TERM=linux ’ so the configuration file name is gnuitrc.linux . You can (and should) have a configuration file for each terminal type you use. If you customise git, the version of the config file in your home directory should have a leading ".", eg .gnuitrc.linux .

FILE-SYSTEM BROWSER

gitfm is made of two panels. The left one and the right one. Each one contains a file system directory. You can browse the directory tree with the usual cursor keys and pressing ENTER when you want to enter or leave a directory. You may change the panels by pressing TAB . See also BUILT-IN COMMANDS .

INPUT LINE

Under the two panels there is a shell like input line which you can use to type normal shell commands. The input line supports unlimited characters and keeps a history of the typed commands. gitfm uses the GNU history library for that. See also BUILT-IN COMMANDS .

WARNINGS AND ERRORS REPORTING

Under the input line there is a status bar. You can see there the status of the currently executed command, the warnings and errors and you will be prompted if a decision has to be taken.
