Calling the FileBrowser with the directory calls up the files stored in that directory:
(FB ’<usr>local>lde>)
Another way to call a FileBrowser is to choose "FileBrowser" from the background
menu. You will be prompted for a description of the files to be included (see Figure 5-1). Type an asterisk (*), then press Return to see all the files in the connected directory.

These show a directory of the device in a window you can leave on the screen at all times. The parts of the FileBrowser window are shown below.

To use the FileBrowser, choose a file by pointing to the file with the mouse and pressing the left or middle mouse button. A small dark arrow appears to the left of the file
name. Choose a command from the menu at the right. In Figure 5-3, the files
OCH1.TEDIT;1, OCH10.TEDIT;1, and OCH11.TEDIT;1 have been selected.
The left mouse button only allows you to choose one file at a time. Even if you choose other files, only the last file you selected with the left mouse button will remain
marked as chosen. When you use the middle mouse button to select a file, the file is added to those already chosen.
To unpick an already chosen file, hold the Control key down while pressing the middle mouse button.
