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.
