- List contents of a directory on an rclone remote:

`rclone lsf {{remote_name}}:{{path/to/directory}}`

- Copy file or directory from local source to remote destination:

`rclone copy {{path/to/source_file_or_directory}} {{remote_name}}:{{path/to/destination_directory}}`

- Copy file or directory from remote source to local destination:

`rclone copy {{remote_name}}:{{path/to/source_file_or_directory}} {{path/to/destination_directory}}`

- Sync local source to remote destination, changing the destination only:

`rclone sync {{path/to/file_or_directory}} {{remote_name}}:{{path/to/directory}}`

- Move file or directory from local source to remote destination:

`rclone move {{path/to/file_or_directory}} {{remote_name}}:{{path/to/directory}}`

- Delete remote file or directory (use `--dry-run` to test, remove it to actually delete):

`rclone --dry-run delete {{remote_name}}:{{path/to/file_or_directory}}`

- Mount rclone remote (experimental):

`rclone mount {{remote_name}}:{{path/to/directory}} {{path/to/mount_point}}`

- Unmount rclone remote if CTRL-C fails (experimental):

`fusermount -u {{path/to/mount_point}}`
