File access from scripts

The design is flexible so a script can access:

• all files in the directory (nnn switches to the dir where the script is to be run so the dir is $PWD for the script)
• the currently highlighted file (the file name is passed as the first argument to a script)
• the current selection (by reading the file .nnncp, see the script copier)

Contributing scripts

All scripting languages should work. However, POSIX-compliant shell scripts runnable in sh are preferred. If that’s too rudimentary for your use case, use Python, Perl or Ruby. Please keep non-portable commands (like notify-send) commented so users from any other OS/DE aren’t surprised.

The scripts should be executable. Please add an entry in the table above.
