The Explorer window allows you to move around the directory tree on local disk or FTP/SFTP server, open files with CodeLobster IDE, or system applications. You can create new FTP/SFTP connections, download files and folders from the server. Properties window displays the properties of a single selected file or folder in the Explorer window.

Holding down the Ctrl key or the Shift key as you click a file, allows you to select more than one. Ctrl – allows you to click and select multiple files that are anywhere on your file list, not necessarily next to each other. Shift – allows you to select a group of files that are contiguous (i.e. next to each other) by clicking one file, and then holding Shift and clicking the last file. All the files in between are then selected.
