vscode-dired

vscode-dired is an File Manager (or Directory Editor) for VS Code, forked from shirou's vscode-dired.

This is a port from Emacs dired-mode.

Why forked?

There are 2 challenges I faced in the original vscode-dired.

• The keybindings are different from original Emacs
• There is no feature for a directory back or writable directory mode

Features

Filer used by only keyboard.

Key Bindings

Keybindings follow standard Emacs dired conventions as default:

Opening Dired

• Ctrl+X d - Open dired buffer

Navigation

• n / Space - Move cursor down to next file
• p - Move cursor up to previous file

File Operations

• Enter / f / o - Open file or enter directory
• ^ - Go up to parent directory
• shift+r (R) - Rename or move file or directory
• shift+c (C) - Copy file or directory
• shift+d (D) - Delete file or directory recursively
• + - Create new directory

Buffer Operations

• g - Refresh current directory contents
• q - Go back to previous directory (or close if no history)

Wdired Mode

• Ctrl+x Ctrl+q - Enter wdired mode for editing filenames

Wdired Mode

Wdired (Writable Dired) mode allows you to edit filenames directly in the dired buffer:

1. Press Ctrl+x Ctrl+q to enter wdired mode
2. Edit filenames directly in the buffer
3. Press Ctrl+c Ctrl+c to commit changes (files will be renamed)
4. Press Ctrl+c ESC to abort and revert changes
