OD Commander

From the OD Commander's source code page:

OD Commander is forked from DinguxCommander which is a file manager for RetroFW. It uses two vertical panels side by side, one being the source and the other the destination, like many "commander-style" file managers such as Norton Commander or Midnight Commander.

DinguxCommander allows to:

  • Copy, move and delete multiple files
  • View a file
  • Execute a file
  • Edit a file one line at the time
  • Rename a file or directory
  • Create a new directory
  • Display disk space used by a list of selected files/dirs
  • Display disk information (used, available, total)

Accessing external drives

You can even access external drives (i.e., connected usb drives via otg dongle) by navigating to the /media path. There you will find the external drives listed (including the partitions used by KNULLI).

Editing files using OD Commander

It is also possible to edit files directly from your KNULLI device using OD Commander. It is not the most comfortable/ergonomic way to do it, but if needed just highlight the file you want to edit, open it using the South face button () and click view from the emergent menu. Once in the file navigate through the lines using the D-pad. Press the South or North face button (/) to open a new menu when you can select one of the next options:

  • Edit line
  • Duplicate line
  • Insert line before
  • Insert line after
  • Remove line

For text editing, use the on-screen keyboard. Keep in mind that changes are automaticaly saved so be careful when editing files. Once you are done editing, push the East face button () for closing (and automatically saving) the file.
