Ranger cd into a folder?

Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP

I'm using Ranger to navigate around my file system.

Is there a shortcut where I cd into that folder?

I found the answer to this in the man pages:

S Open a shell in the current directory

Yes, probably should have read through that before asking here.

@Hi-Angel when you are browsing directories hit S it should leave ranger and go to a new terminal. But if you run exit you go back to ranger. You need to use a capital S small s won't work.

You could also use :cd /path/to/folder if you are already in Ranger.

You can also do it the other way and use ranger-cd to automatically change the directory in bash after closing ranger with this script.

I use it with

alias r=ranger-cd

You can also do it the other way and use ranger-cd to automatically change the directory in bash after closing ranger with this script.

I use it with

alias r=ranger-cd
