Press R to run the script in the current directory.

+It's possible to run multiple scripts with `nnn` as long as the scripts are in the same location and share the same prefix. To enable multiple scripts,
+
+ export NNN_MULTISCRIPT=1
+
+With the example of `NNN_SCRIPT` above, some more scripts could be:
+
+ /usr/local/bin/nscript1
+ /usr/local/bin/nscript2
+ /usr/local/bin/nscriptcustom1
+ /usr/local/bin/nscriptcustom2
+ and so on...
+
+Type the correct suffix when prompted on pressing the keybind R. To use the base script (`NNN_SCRIPT`), just press Enter.
