     ### 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`.
