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.

   Please send bug reports to:
