THE FILE SELECTOR MODULE
========================

This module replaces the regular file selector. It works just like the 
old one, but allows you to do a lot more, like copying files, deleting 
files, creating folders and checking the available space on your 
floppy disks and hard drives. It also allows you to store 10 "disk 
paths" for instant access. Without this module, opening/saving a file 
is a two stage process: you select the type of file in one dialog and 
then a regular Atari file dialog opens. With this module, this all 
happens in one dialog box.


In the upper right hand corner of the file selector is the "Functions" 
pop-up menu. The available functions are:

Copy
====

This function copies selected files.
1. Select the file or files you want to copy by clicking in the 
   file list (hold down [Shift] for multiple selections).
2. Select Copy from the Functions pop-up.
3. Select the destination path (the position to where you want 
   to copy the files), by using the file list or by selecting a
   pre-defined path (see below).
4. Click the Copy button or press [Return].


Delete
======

This function deletes the selected files from disk.
1. Select the file or files you want to delete (hold down [Shift] for
   multiple selections).
2. Select Delete from the Functions pop-up.
3. Click OK if you want to delete the files or CANCEL if you want to 
   abort.


Rename
======

This function renames one selected file.
1. Select the file you want to rename.
2. Select Rename from the Functions pop-up.
3. Use the [Esc] key to clear the current name and type in a new. 
   Alternatively, edit the name by using the arrow keys to move the 
   insertion point and the [Backspace] key to erase single letters.
4. Press [Return] to confirm.


Disk Info
=========

This function displays the free space as well as the total space on 
the selected disk.


Save Prefs
==========

This functions saves the current File Selector settings as defaults.


Paths
=====
In the upper left corner you will find the path selector. You can 
store up to 10 of your most often used disk paths, for instant access.

If you click the word "Path:" in the path selector, a pop-up menu 
appears with a list of the 10 disk paths. Unused positions are called 
"empty". 

To activate a path, just select it from the menu.

To store a path, proceed as follows:
1. Set up the path you want to store, by using the file list.
2. While holding down [Shift], pull down the menu and click on 
   the desired item.


File Types
==========
In the right half of the File selector you will find eight check 
boxes. When you check one of these boxes, the file selector will only 
display files of the selected file type. Folders are always shown. If 
you hold down [Shift] while selecting a file type, the Path selector 
also changes to a stored Path that contains the selected file type. If 
multiple Paths contain the same file type the most recently used will 
be selected.


New Folder
==========
This button creates a new folder in the current path, on the selected 
disk. 
1. Select the desired Path.
2. Click the "New Folder" button.
3. Type the name of the new folder in the box that appears.
4. Press [Return] to confirm.


The Drive Selectors
===================
Beside the file list are 18 letter boxes (A to P). These are he Drive 
Selectors and clicking one displays its contents in the files list. 
Unavailable drives are grey.


Info Line
=========
Below the file list is an Info Line which displays the number and 
total size of the selected items in the file list. If nothing is 
selected, the info line displays the number of items shown in the list 
and their total size. Since folders have no size, the info line says 
"0 bytes" if the file list only shows folders. To display the size of 
a folder's contents, simply select the folder.
