File List Modes

This is the simplest mode. If listing all the files takes a long time, the program will be unresponsive.

To enable, type b into the filter bar, go back to files mode, and press m.

To avoid blocking, this mode performs all filesystem operations in the background. Can cause flickering and isn't as responsive on fast disks.

To enable, type t into the filter bar, go back to files mode, and press m.

Like blocking, but after the timeout is reached, tuifile will stop adding more files to the list. This means that file lists may be incomplete.

To enable, type b<seconds> into the filter bar, go back to files mode, and press m. Replace <seconds> with a number like 1 or 0.3.

Like blocking, but after the timeout is reached, tuifile will cancel the operation and restart it in threaded mode.

To enable, type t<seconds> into the filter bar, go back to files mode, and press m. Replace <seconds> with a number like 1 or 0.3.
