key commands execute additional XTREE commands. Press the

Alt 

key to display the ALT DIR COMMANDS or ALT FILE COMMANDS.

These commands appear on the line where the DIR COMMANDS or

FILE COMMANDS normally appear. To execute an 

Alt 

key command,

hold down the 

Alt 

key and press the highlighted letter of the

command name.

Function keys control XTREE itself. Press 

F1 

to quit XTREE, 

F2 

to

display a screen of help information, or 

F3 

to cancel a command.

XTREE displays the available commands and the key that executes

pressing 

F3. 

This stops any function.

Ctrl A

accidentally erase or alter files.
