Chapter 7. The GNOME File Manager
• Select Files - This will launch a simple dialog box which will
allow you to specify a file selection range. For Example, if you
wish to select all files beginning with the letter D you can simple
type d* and press OK.

example, if you have 7 files selected in a directory with 10 files,
selecting Invert Selection will select the three remaining files and
unselect the 7 files that were previously selected.
• Rescan Directory - This will rescan the current directory in case
the files in the directory have changed.

can customize the GNOME File Manager.
• Layout - This menu contains items that are associated with the
layout in GNOME File Manager.

select how you wish the files to be sorted in the current directory.
