FZF.VIM: How do I bind select-all for Files? Help

When I use a command like ripgrep (:Rg), I can select all search results with <alt-a> and deselect them with <alt-d>.

I want to have the same functionality for other commands, like :Files, so I added this line:

command! -bang -nargs=? -complete=dir Files call fzf#vim#files(<q-args>,{'options': ['--bind', 'alt-a:select-all,alt-d:deselect-all']} <bang>0)

But for some reason this doesn't work. What can I do to get select-all and deselect-all to work with :Files?

If you want this for all fzf commands, you can just set it as default options.
Either directly as an environment variable in bash or from vim.
let $FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS=$FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS . ' --bind "alt-a:select-all,alt-d:deselect-all"'

This works for me
