Description

Hi this app works great when using touch, but when using a hardware mouse (Such as in Samsung Dex) it is less intuitive. A lot of android file explorers allow you to right click a file and then choose an option (such as copy) and this is similar to how file explorers on PCs work. But for this app the only way to bring up those options with a mouse is to hold the left click. Could you please consider adding the abillity to use the right click on a hardware mouse.
