\section{\label{ref:file_browser}File Browser}
\screenshot{rockbox_interface/images/ss-file-browser}{The file browser}{}
The file browser helps you navigate through the files on your \dap, entering
folders and executing the default action on each file. To help us differentiate
files, each file format is displayed with an icon. You can select which file
types are displayed (see page \pageref{ref:ShowFiles}).
\note{When Tag Cache is enabled you will access the Tag Cache browser instead
of the File Browser. With Tag Cache you will be able accessing your music
using a database but won't be able doing any file manipulations.
Read more about Tag Cache in Section \ref{ref:tagcache}.

\subsection{\label{ref:Filemenu}\label{ref:PartIISectionFM}File Menu}
\screenshot{rockbox_interface/images/ss-file-menu}{The file menu}{}
This menu operates on the file that was selected in the browser. It offers the
following options:
\begin{description}
\item [Open with:]
Runs a viewer plugin on the file. Normally the filetype of a file is detected
and the appropriate plugin is run automatically when you press play on it.
Use this menu if for some reason you want to override the default action and
select a viewer by hand. See page \textmd{\pageref{ref:Viewersplugins}} for
more details on viewers. For example, this would be used to view a text file
with a non-standard extension, i.e. not ending with .txt.
\item [Playlist:]
Change to the Playlist submenu (see below).
\item [Rename:]
This function lets the user modify a file name.
\item [Cut:]
Copies the name of the currently selected file or directory to the clipboard
and marks it to be 'cut'.
\item [Copy:]
Copies the name of the currently selected file or directory to the clipboard
and marks it to be 'copied'.
\item [Paste:]
Only visible if a file or directory name is on the clipboard. When selected
it will move or copy the clipboard to the current directory.
\item [Delete:]
Only files can be deleted, not folders. Rockbox will ask for confirmation
before deleting a file. Press PLAY to confirm deletion or any other key to
cancel.
\item [Delete Directory:]
Deletes the folder pointed to by the cursor and all the files and folders
contained in it. Use with caution.
\item [Create Directory:]
Makes a new folder in the current folder on the disk.
\end{description}
\subsection{\label{ref:Playlistsubmenu}Playlist Submenu}
\screenshot{rockbox_interface/images/ss-playlist-menu}{The playlist menu}{}
If the playlist submenu is invoked on a directory, it will act on all the files
within that directory. If invoked on a playlist it will act on all the files
in that playlist. Otherwise it acts only on the current file.
This menu provides the following options:
\begin{description}
\item [Insert:]
Add track(s) to playlist. If no other tracks have been inserted then the
selected track will be added immediately after current playing track,
otherwise they will be added to end of insertion list.
\item [Insert next:]
Add track(s) immediately after current playing track, no matter what else has
been inserted.
\item [Insert last:]
Add track(s) to end of playlist.
\item [Queue:]
Queue is the same as Insert except queued tracks are deleted immediately from
the playlist after they've been played. Also, queued tracks are not saved to
the playlist file (see page \pageref{ref:playlistoptions}).
\item [Queue next:]
Queue track(s) immediately after current playing track.
\item [Queue last:]
Queue track(s) at end of playlist.
\end{description}
You can insert a track, directory or playlist even if nothing is currently
playing. In this case, a new playlist is created with only the selected tracks
and then play is started.\\
\note{The dynamic playlist is saved so resume will restore it exactly as before shutdown.}
\subsection{Virtual Keyboard}
\screenshot{rockbox_interface/images/ss-virtual-keyboard}{The virtual keyboard}{}
This is the virtual keyboard that is used when entering file names in Rockbox.
