CHAPTER 3. THE ROCKBOX INTERFACE 15
Copy: Copies the name of the currently selected file or directory to the clipboard and
marks it to be ’copied’.
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.
Delete: Deletes the currently selected file. This option applies only to files, and not to
directories. Rockbox will ask for confirmation before deleting a file. Press Play
to confirm deletion or any other key to cancel.
Delete Directory: Deletes the currently selected directory and all of the files and fold-
ers contained in the selected directory. Deleted directories cannot be recovered.
Use this feature with caution!
Open with: Runs a viewer plugin on the file. Normally, when a file is selected in Rock-
box, Rockbox automatically detects the file type and runs the appropriate plugin.
The OPEN WITH function can be used to override the default action and select a
viewer by hand. For example, this function can be used to view a text file even if
the file has a non-standard extension (i.e., the file has an extension of something
other than .txt). See section 7.3 (page 40) for more details on viewers.
Create Directory: Makes a new folder in the current folder on the disk.
3.2.3. Playlist Submenu
Figure 3.3.: The Playlist Submenu
The PLAYLIST SUBMENU allows you to put tracks into a “dynamic playlist”. If there
is no music currently playing, Rockbox will create a new dynamic playlist and put the
selected track(s) into the playlist. If there is music currently playing, Rockbox will put
the selected track(s) into the current playlist. The place in which the newly selected
tracks are added to the playlist is determined by the following options:
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.
Insert next: Add track(s) immediately after current playing track, no matter what else
has been inserted.
