Renames and moves go through Obsidian's `FileManager`, so wiki links and embeds are updated automatically\n- **Safe deletes** — deletions use Obsidian's native per-file confirmation (respecting your \"Confirm file deletion\" and \"Deleted files\" preferences), including the prompt to delete linked attachments\n- **Bookmarks** — bookmark folders and fuzzy-jump to them from anywhere\n- **Preview mode** — automatically open the file at the cursor in a split as you move\n- **Inline key hints** — the bottom of the buffer lists every binding; toggle with `?`\n- **Auto-refresh** — the listing stays in sync as the vault changes\n\n## Key bindings\n\n| Key | Action |\n| --- | --- |\n| `m` | Toggle mark (and advance) |\n| `t` | Toggle all marks |\n| `U` | Unmark all |\n| `*.` | Mark by file extension |\n| `Enter` / `o` | Open file / view directory |\n| `R` | Rename mode — edit names in the buffer, `Enter` applies, `Esc` cancels |\n| `Ctrl+Alt+↑/↓` | Add cursors above/below for column editing (rename mode only) |\n| `M` | Move marked files (or file at cursor) |\n| `D` | Delete marked files (or file at cursor) to trash |\n| `cd` | Create directory |\n| `cf` | Create file |\n| `u` | Up to parent directory |\n| `g` | Go to directory |\n| `B` | Go to bookmark or any directory |\n| `ab` | Toggle bookmark for current directory |\n| `p` / `n` | Move to previous / next file |\n| `j` | Jump to file/dir name |\n| `r` | Refresh view |\n| `P` | Toggle preview mode on/off |\n| `?` | Toggle key hints |\n\nMulti-file operations (`M`, `D`) apply to marked files, or to the file at the cursor when nothing is marked. In rename mode you can also type a relative path (for example `sub/note.md`) to move a file into an existing subfolder.\n\n## Usage\n\n- Command palette: **Dired: Open** (starts in the active file's folder) or **Dired: Open vault root**\n- Ribbon: the folder-tree icon\n- File explorer: right-click a folder → **Open in dired**\n\n## Customization\n\nThe view inherits your theme's monospace font and editor font size. Everything else — fonts, colors, line numbers, spacing — can be overridden with a CSS snippet: see [THEME.md](THEME.md) for a selector reference, recipes, and a visual showcase snippet.\n\n## Notes and limitations\n\n- Vault-scoped: the listing shows what Obsidian indexes, so hidden folders such as `.obsidian` do not appear\n- Marks live per view and are pruned automatically when files disappear\n- The buffer is read-only outside rename mode; arrow keys, `Home`/`End`, and selection all work as in a normal editor\n\n## Installation\n\n[Install from community.obsidian.md](https://community.obsidian.md/plugins/dired)\n\nFrom Obsidian's settings or preferences:\n\n1.
