Packit 15a96c
The file selector is designed to be very intuitive.  It should nearly
Packit 15a96c
always do the expected thing.  So a minimal amount of explanation is
Packit 15a96c
all that should be necessary.  (If I did it right.)
Packit 15a96c
Packit 15a96c
    Minicom's current working directory is changed to whatever directory
Packit 15a96c
	is displayed on the selector's title bar.
Packit 15a96c
Packit 15a96c
    Double-tapping the space-bar (taps within a second or so of each
Packit 15a96c
	other) while on a directory entry will move you into that
Packit 15a96c
	directory.
Packit 15a96c
Packit 15a96c
    The "Goto" requester will always initialize to whatever is configured
Packit 15a96c
	for the default upload/download directory, as appropriate.  If
Packit 15a96c
	blank: the user's HOME directory is where it'll go to.
Packit 15a96c
Packit 15a96c
    The first time the selector is entered, it will go to the default
Packit 15a96c
	download or upload directory--depending on which was called-up:
Packit 15a96c
	an upload or a download.
Packit 15a96c
Packit 15a96c
    Subsequent invocations of the selector will result in it coming-up in
Packit 15a96c
	whichever directory it was last--dependent on whether uploading
Packit 15a96c
	or downloading.  (Doing "Goto" <ret> will easily get you to the
Packit 15a96c
	default directory for the operation, as noted above.)
Packit 15a96c
Packit 15a96c
    When the selector's display is constrained by a wild-card pattern via
Packit 15a96c
	the "Show" menu selection, moving to a new directory will result
Packit 15a96c
	in a full display again.  This was intentional.  But the pattern
Packit 15a96c
	is remembered, so simply doing "Show" <ret> will re-invoke the
Packit 15a96c
	filter.  I felt this would be less confusing.

Packit 15a96c
    The functions at the bottom of the selector are:
Packit 15a96c
Packit 15a96c
	 Goto - Go to a particular directory
Packit 15a96c
	 Prev - Go to previous directory
Packit 15a96c
	 Show - Limit display to (wildcard) pattern
Packit 15a96c
	  Tag - Tag files with (wildcard) pattern
Packit 15a96c
	Untag - Untag files with (wildcard) pattern
Packit 15a96c
	 Okay - All done
Packit 15a96c
Packit 15a96c
    The functions at the bottom of the selector ("Goto", etc.) are hot-
Packit 15a96c
        keyed on their first letter.  Right-left cursor motion works on
Packit 15a96c
	them as well.
Packit 15a96c
Packit 15a96c
    If "selectable download directory" enabled (zmodem, ymodem, etc.):
Packit 15a96c
Packit 15a96c
	For downloads where the filenames are determined by the protocol
Packit 15a96c
	    (e.g.: zmodem): files will appear in the selector, but
Packit 15a96c
	    attempts to tag them are a no-op.  (Nothing happens.)
Packit 15a96c
	    
Packit 15a96c
	    You select the desired download directory by entering it.
