Add prev_dir and next_dir navigation actions
Many image collections are organized by directory, so it is nice to have
jump-to-adjacent-directory navigation.
e.g. Given the following file hierarchy:
.
├── A
│ ├── 1.jpg
│ ├── 2.jpg
│ └── C
│ ├── 1.jpg
│ ├── 2.jpg
│ └── 3.jpg
└── B
├── 1.jpg
├── 2.jpg
└── 3.jpg
`feh --recursive` creates the following filelist:
A/1.jpg <---- current_file
A/2.jpg
A/C/1.jpg
A/C/2.jpg
A/C/3.jpg
B/1.jpg
B/2.jpg
B/3.jpg
If we press [next_dir], we move the current_file pointer to:
A/1.jpg
A/2.jpg
A/C/1.jpg <-- current_file
A/C/2.jpg
A/C/3.jpg
B/1.jpg
B/2.jpg
B/3.jpg
Pressing [next_dir] again moves the pointer to:
A/1.jpg
A/2.jpg
A/C/1.jpg
A/C/2.jpg
A/C/3.jpg
B/1.jpg <---- current_file
B/2.jpg
B/3.jpg
[next_dir] now moves the pointer back to the top of the list:
A/1.jpg <---- current_file
A/2.jpg
A/C/1.jpg
A/C/2.jpg
A/C/3.jpg
B/1.jpg
B/2.jpg
B/3.jpg
Pressing [prev_dir] from here moves backwards to the first image of the
previous directory:
A/1.jpg
A/2.jpg
A/C/1.jpg
A/C/2.jpg
A/C/3.jpg
B/1.jpg <---- current_file
B/2.jpg
B/3.jpg
When starting from an position that is not the first image of a
directory, [prev_dir] moves the pointer to the first image of the
current directory.
These actions combine well with `--sort dirname` since all regular files
in a directory will be sorted before any subdirectories, avoiding a
filelist like the following:
A/1.jpg
A/SUBDIR/2.jpg
A/SUBDIR/3.jpg
A/4.jpg
With `--sort dirname` that filelist becomes:
A/1.jpg
A/4.jpg
A/SUBDIR/2.jpg
A/SUBDIR/3.jpg
