================

A tiny keyboard-friendly directory navigator for Windows

Start `lnav.exe` in the directory you want to navigate from.

Type to edit the search string

Keybindings

-----------

* `return`

   * if a file is selected, edit the selected file (currently hard coded to gVim).

     If search string ends with `:x:y`, will open file at row `x`, col `y`.

     If search string ends with `:x`, will open file at row `x`

   * if a directory is selected, open the directory in an explorer window

* `shift-return` to edit a new file at the selected path with a name equal to the search string

* `tab` find next file that contains the search string

* `shift-tab` collapse all branches

* `ctrl-V` paste into search string and find next match

* `ctrl-G` find next file whose contents match a regex from the search string.

   * `shift-ctrl-G` open file and go to first match position

Mouse actions

-------------

* double-click to edit selected file

* right-click to copy a relative path to the clipboard. Path is *from* selected *to* right-clicked nodes.

Other

-----

If you pass a command line argument of a file path to `lnav`, it will send this to all other running instances.

Those instances will use it to search for the file.

(I map this to `shift-K` in gvim like this: `noremap K :silent! !lnav %`)

To do

-----

* cleanup Form1 code.

* option to expand directories that have been truncated due to depth limit.
