emelFM2 actions are primarily intended to be bound to UI items - a key-binding, a toolbar button and/or a menu item.

Any action may also be included in any customised command string.

Actions named like file.* apply to active-pane selected items.

In the following:
1. the Parameters column has either Y=parameter(s) are expected, O=parameter(s) optional, or N=no parameter
2. parameter(s) are named in their english form, but in general, they would be translated
(This document is best viewed in a monospace font.)
