Introduction

After successfully launching swanshell, the first screen displayed is the file browser view.

This view is the primary method of interacting with data on the nileswan’s storage card:

• The top bar shows the current directory path being browsed. As swanshell starts browsing at the card’s root directory, / is the directory displayed.
• The bottom bar shows the current page and total number of pages. The contents of larger directories may span multiple pages, which can be navigated between using the X4 and X2 buttons. swanshell supports displaying slightly over 1500 files per directory.
• The middle area shows the files on the current page of the current directory. You can use X1 and X3 to navigate between the files.

The following buttons are used in all swanshell list views:

• The X pad (X1, X2, X3, X4) is used to navigate the contents of the list. Other lists (such as the settings menu) work the same way!
• A is used to select an option. For example, in the file browser, A may enter a subdirectory, or launch a .wsc file.
• B is used to navigate upwards. For example, in the file browser, B will exit a previously entered subdirectory.

Some views may have additional features. For example, START in the file browser brings up a menu with additional actions:

Alternatively, in the settings menu, Y1 can be used to invoke further information about a specific option.
