-## Ways to invoke a plugin
+## Invoking a plugin
-1. Fire directly with <kbd>;key</kbd> or <kbd>^Fkey</kbd>:
+Use the plugin shortcut (<kbd>;key</kbd> or <kbd>;key</kbd>) to list the defined plugin keys and press the required key. E.g., with the below config:
- export NNN_PLUG='o:fzopen;p:mocplay;d:diffs;m:nmount;n:notes;v:imgviu;t:imgthumb'
+ export NNN_PLUG='o:fzopen;p:mocplay;d:diffs;m:nmount;n:notes;v:imgviu;t:imgthumb'
- Now plugin `fzopen` can be run with the keybind <kbd>;o</kbd>, `mocplay` can be run with <kbd>;p</kbd> and so on... The key vs. plugin pairs are shown in the help and config screen.

-2. Use the _pick plugin_ keybind to visit the plugin directory, select and run a plugin. Repeat the keybind to cancel and return to the original directory.
+A maximum of 15 keys can be defined. To select and invoke a plugin from the plugin directory, press <kbd>Enter</kbd> (to _enter_ the plugin dir) after the plugin shortcut.
#### Skip directory refresh after running a plugin
-`nnn` refreshes a directory after running a plugin by key (method 1 above) to reflect any changes by the plugin. To disable this (say while running the `mediainfo` plugin on some filtered files), add a `-` before the plugin name:
