If a context is not provided, it is asked for explicitly. To skip this and choose the current context, set the `CUR_CTX` variable in `.nnn-plugin-helper` to `1`.
Usage examples can be found in the Examples section below.

#### Get notified on file hover

If `NNN_FIFO` is set, `nnn` will open it and write every hovered files. This can be used in plugins, e.g. to implement file previews.

If a `NNN_FIFO` is set globally, each `nnn` instance will write to it, and a process reading from the pipe will get hovered path from every instance, interleaved.

If you want to prevent this and be sure to have a private pipe to one `nnn` instance, you can unlink (remove) the FIFO file. If you had opened the FIFO before and you have read from it (so that `nnn` have it opened too), you can still read from it while you don't close it. But new `nnn` instances will recreate a new FIFO not linked to the previous one.

Don't forget to fork in the background to avoid blocking `nnn`.

#### Examples
There are many plugins provided by `nnn` which can be used as examples. Here are a few simple selected examples.

Example (send every hovered file to X selection):

```sh
#!/usr/bin/env sh
if [ -z "$NNN_FIFO" ] ; then
exit 1
fi

while read FILE ; do
if [ -n "$NNN_FIFO" ] ; then
# If you want to remove the FIFO,
# don't do it before first read,
# nnn won't have it opened yet
rm "$NNN_FIFO"
NNN_FIFO=
fi
printf "%s" "$FILE" | xsel
done < "$NNN_FIFO" &
disown
```
