* Use the F-Keys for invoking the commands in the function key bar.
 
  If your terminal doesn't support F-keys, you can use the <ESC digit>
 
  sequence to invoke the corresponding F-digit key.
 
 
 
* Tab changes the current panel.
 
 
 
* All input lines have [[emacs]]-like key-bindings (command history is accessed through the M-p and M-n keys).
 
 
 
* The panels accept C-n, C-p for browsing the panel (like in [[Emacs]]).
 
 
 
* M-Enter copies the currently selected file name to the input line.
 
 
 
* M-Tab completes the current word (or tries to).
 
 
 
* The Virtual File System is a cute addition to the project, you may browse in tar and compressed tar files as well as browsing remote machines with the fish file system.
