Documentation

If t, the "up" and "down" movement works as in Dired mode.

That is, always move the point to the beginning of the filename at line.

If sometimes, only move to the beginning of filename if the point is before it, and track-eol is non-nil. This behavior is very handy when editing several filenames.

If nil, "up" and "down" movement is done as in any other buffer.
