.PP
Backing up one directory level will set the cursor position at the
directory you came out of.
.SH FILTERS
Filters allow you to use regexes to display only the matched
entries in the current directory view.
This effectively allows searching through the directory tree
for a particular entry.
.PP
Filters do not stack on top of each other.
They are applied anew every time.
.PP
To reset the filter you can input an empty filter expression.
.PP
If
.BR fm
is invoked as root the default filter will also match hidden files.
.SH ENVIRONMENT
The
.BR SHELL
and
.BR EDITOR
environment variables take precedence when dealing with the
! and E
commands respectively. The
.BR PAGER
environment variable can be used to replace
.B more
with your
preferred screen pager (used with right arrow when opening a file).
