#### Skip directory refresh after running a plugin
-`nnn` refreshes the directory after running a plugin to reflect any changes by the plugin. To disable this (say while running the `mediainf` plugin on some filtered files), add a `-` before the plugin name:
+`nnn` refreshes the directory after running a plugin to reflect any changes by the plugin. To disable this add a `-` before the plugin name:
```sh
-export NNN_PLUG='m:-mediainf'
+export NNN_PLUG='p:-plugin'

-Now `nnn` will not refresh the directory after running the `mediainf` plugin.

## Running commands as plugin
-To assign keys to arbitrary non-background, non-shell-interpreted cli commands and invoke like plugins, add `_` (underscore) before the command.
+To assign keys to arbitrary non-background, non-shell-interpreted cli commands and invoke like plugins, add `!` (underscore) before the command.
For example:
```sh
-export NNN_PLUG='x:_chmod +x $nnn;g:_git log;s:_smplayer $nnn'
+export NNN_PLUG='x:!chmod +x $nnn;g:!git log;s:!smplayer $nnn'
```
Now <kbd>;x</kbd> can be used to make a file executable, <kbd>;g</kbd> can be used to the git log of a git project directory, <kbd>;s</kbd> can be used to preview a partially downloaded media file.
`nnn` waits for user confirmation (the prompt `Press Enter to continue`) after it executes a command as plugin (unlike plugins which can add a `read` to wait). To skip this, add a `*` after the command. For example:
```sh
-export NNN_PLUG='s:_smplayer $nnn*;n:-_vim /home/vaio/Dropbox/Public/synced_note*'
+export NNN_PLUG='s:!smplayer $nnn*;n:-!vim /home/vaio/Dropbox/Public/synced_note*'
```
Now there will be no prompt after <kbd>;s</kbd> and <kbd>;n</kbd>.
#### Run GUI app as plugin
