%
% The final reference card has six columns, three on each side.
% This file can be used to produce it in any of three ways:
% 1 column per page
%    produces six separate pages, each of which needs to be reduced to 80%.
%    This gives the best resolution.
% 2 columns per page
%    produces three already-reduced pages.
%    You will still need to cut and paste.
% 3 columns per page
%    produces two pages which must be printed sideways to make a
%    ready-to-use 8.5 x 11 inch reference card.
%    For this you need a dvi device driver that can print sideways.
% Which mode to use is controlled by setting \columnsperpage above.

\title{Tree Dired Reference Card}

\centerline{(for GNU Emacs version 18)}

\centerline{$ !Id: dired-ref.tex,v 1.1.1.1 1992/06/29 22:33:08 devin Exp ! $}

A feature marked like this\diredx{} is optional and not part of dired
proper. 


\section{Starting Dired}

\key{Dired in current window} {C-x d}
\key{Dired in other window} {C-x 4 d}

The last component of the pathname may contain wildcards.  With prefix
argument, Dired asks you to enter the listing switches for the {\tt
ls} command.

Another way is from within {\tt find-file}, \kbd{C-x C-f}: just enter
a directory name (no wildcards possible).


\section {Cursor Motion}
All the usual Emacs cursor motion commands are available in Dired
buffers. Special motion commands are (see also ``Subdirectories''
below):

\beginindentedkeys
\paralign to \hsize{#\tabskip=10pt plus 1 fil&#\tabskip=0pt&#\cr
\threecol{\bf go to}           {\bf previous}      {\bf next}
\threecol{line}                {C-p {\rm or} p}    {C-n {\rm or} n}
\threecol{directory line}      {<}                 {>}
%\threecol{inserted directory}  {ESC C-p}           {ESC C-n} % now below
\threecol{marked file}         {ESC \{}            {ESC \}}
}
\endindentedkeys

\key{redisplay current, marked or next N files}{l}
\key{revert buffer}{g}

\key{kill this line (but not this file)}{k}
\key{undo changes to Dired buffer}  {C-x u {\rm or} C-_}
\key{copy file name(s) to kill ring\diredx} {w}


\section{Marking and Unmarking Files}

\key{remove a specific or all flags from every file}{ESC DEL}
%\key{toggle marks\diredx}{T} % this command is not very important


\section {Mark Using Commands} 

The following commands are applied to the marked files or (if there
are none) to the current file. Numeric prefix argument means, apply
command to the next N (previous N if negative) files.  Digits work as
prefix arguments.

{\bf Copying And Moving Files\dots}

Default target directory is where point is.

\beginindentedkeys
\key{move or rename} {r}
\key{copy} {c}
\key{make hard links} {H}
\key{make symbolic links} {Y}
\key{make relative symbolic links\diredx} {S}
\endindentedkeys

{\bf \dots With Regexps}

{\tt \\\&} in NEWNAME stands for the entire text being replaced.  {\tt
\\N} in NEWNAME, where N is a digit, stands for whatever matched the
N'th parenthesized grouping in REGEXP.

\beginindentedkeys
\key{move or rename} {\%r}
\key{copy} {\%c}
\key{make hard links} {\%H}
\key{make symbolic links} {\%Y}
