Yes, it isn't necessary. Before bind a key to another action you should unbind it. f1 key is bound to for Help action. ctrl-f is bound to Right action in the command line, which is input line. Please create ~/.config/mc/mc.keymap with following content: [filemanager] # unbind a key (was: Help = f1) Help = # bind f1 to the new action HotList = f1 # bind ctrl-f to the new action Find = ctrl-f [input] # unbind ctrl-f (was: Right = right; alt-right; ctrl-f) Right = right; alt-right Unfortunately, after that ctrl-f will not work in all input lines. -- Andrew _______________________________________________ mc mailing list https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
