Registered commands
Registered commands are low-level commands that are specific for a list view mode and cannot not be directly selected when configuring buttons, hotkeys, and file types. Such registered commands do not require complex configuration and usually uses no argument or single string arguments. These commands can be accessed via the command menu or via the "ScriptOp" command in Evaluate mode.
These commands are always executed by the active list view mode. If a command is started but the currently active mode does not support it, a note will appear.
