Keybindings
       For more	information see:
	   https://github.com/dylanaraps/fff#customizing-the-keybindings

       ### Moving around.

       # Go to child directory.
       export FFF_KEY_CHILD1="l"
       export FFF_KEY_CHILD2=$'\[C' # Right Arrow
       export FFF_KEY_CHILD3=""	     # Enter / Return

       # Go to parent directory.
       export FFF_KEY_PARENT1="h"
       export FFF_KEY_PARENT2=$'\[D' # Left Arrow
       export FFF_KEY_PARENT3=$'177' # Backspace
       export FFF_KEY_PARENT4=$'\b'   #	Backspace (Older terminals)

       # Go to previous	directory.
       export FFF_KEY_PREVIOUS="-"

       # Search.
       export FFF_KEY_SEARCH="/"

       # Spawn a shell.
       export FFF_KEY_SHELL="!"

       # Scroll	down.
       export FFF_KEY_SCROLL_DOWN1="j"
       export FFF_KEY_SCROLL_DOWN2=$'\[B' # Down Arrow

       # Scroll	up.
       export FFF_KEY_SCROLL_UP1="k"
       export FFF_KEY_SCROLL_UP2=$'\[A'	  # Up Arrow

       # Go to top and bottom.
       export FFF_KEY_TO_TOP="g"
       export FFF_KEY_TO_BOTTOM="G"

       # Go to dirs.
       export FFF_KEY_GO_DIR=":"
       export FFF_KEY_GO_HOME="~"
       export FFF_KEY_GO_TRASH="t"

       ### File	operations.

       export FFF_KEY_YANK="y"
       export FFF_KEY_MOVE="m"
       export FFF_KEY_TRASH="d"
       export FFF_KEY_LINK="s"
       export FFF_KEY_BULK_RENAME="b"

       export FFF_KEY_YANK_ALL="Y"
       export FFF_KEY_MOVE_ALL="M"
       export FFF_KEY_TRASH_ALL="D"
       export FFF_KEY_LINK_ALL="S"
       export FFF_KEY_BULK_RENAME_ALL="B"

       export FFF_KEY_PASTE="p"
       export FFF_KEY_CLEAR="c"

       export FFF_KEY_RENAME="r"
       export FFF_KEY_MKDIR="n"
       export FFF_KEY_MKFILE="f"

       ### Miscellaneous

       # Show file attributes.
       export FFF_KEY_ATTRIBUTES="x"

       # Toggle	executable flag.
       export FFF_KEY_EXECUTABLE="X"

       # Toggle	hidden files.
       export FFF_KEY_HIDDEN="."

Disabling keybindings
       You can't unset keybindings by making their value `''`.
       What you	need to	do is change their value to `off`.

       Example:

       # KEY_GO_TRASH was bound	to 't',	now its	unset.
       export FFF_KEY_GO_TRASH="off"

       # KEY_MKFILE is now set to 't' and its original
       # keybinding is also unset 'f'.
       export FFF_KEY_MKFILE="t"

Dealing	with conflicting keybindings
       When rebinding a	key in `fff` make sure you don't have two bindings
       with the	same value. You	can avoid this by setting the other
       conflicting key-binding to something else or by changing	its value to `off`.
