Using FLIST, you can view, edit, delete, rename, and purge files and easily move around your directory tree. FLIST also gives you the ability to tag groups of files for file maintenance. .sk When FLIST is started, you are presented with two windows: one containing any subdirectories of the current directory, and the other containing a list of all the files in that directory. You can switch between windows using the "O" command (Other). Once inside FLIST, you can change directories by either "V"iewing a directory name or using the "W" (Wildcard) command to specify a new directory/file specification. .sk FLIST commands consist of single keystrokes. You can move through a file list using the cursor keys. Also, an EDT-like keypad is defined, so you can easily scroll through a file or list using the editing and numeric keypads. For help, type either H (for a one-line description of some of the commands) or PF2 or ? for a list of all defined keys. .sk Format: .sk;.indent 4 FLIST [file-spec] .!------------------------------------------------------------------------------ .sk;.indent -4 2 Parameters .sk;.indent -4 [file-spec] .sk A directory or file specification that FLIST uses to match files.
