Selecting Commands

There are three distinct ways to perform actions:

1. Select a command from the menu at the top of the screen.

2. Select a command from the toolbar below the menu.

3. When a file is open, right-click and select a command from the menu that pops up.

All three approaches produce the same results.

There is a fourth way to initiate action: double-click on an item in the file listing.  The exact behavior depends on what it is you clicked on.  See Working With the File List for details.

Most features will be disabled unless an archive or disk image is open.  Some will be disabled until you select one or more entries from the list.  Some are only active for ShrinkIt archives, or will be dimmed if the file is opened read-only.
