File Management
From Wikanual
Once you you have added files to Interdubs via uploads you can do most things with them that you could do on a local computer store. There are also various other features and attributes that can be reached via the 
edit file screen.

operations via check boxes
In front of files in a folder listing or a search result you find a little checkbox. If you enable one of them, then a new set of icons will appear above the listing. These are for the functions that you can apply to selected files. Instead of doing something again and again you can simply check / uncheck a selection of files and then choose what you like to do to all of them. The check box in the top row allows you to check or uncheck all files at once. 
Gotcha When the page is still loading and you click the select all checkbox, then only the files that are loaded at that point will be checked.
Folders do not have checkboxes since different operations apply to them. These operations are also available in the Search results.

copy icon you will get a screen that will some folders as a target.
See Copy for details.
After you copied the file you will find yourself in the target folder.

The 
move file icons works similar to the copy icon. Except that the file will me moved not copies. You might have expected that.

Which this function you can change the icon of as many clips as you like with one command. The command might take a couple of seconds to complete. Don't be alarmed if the page does not come up right away. You will have -of course- the chance to review and edit the resulting icons.
