Re: go to parent directory with backspace
Yep, have another better way. F9 - Options - Panel options - [x] Lynx-like motion NB: panel listing mode shouldn't be a 'Brief file list' ... and you will navigate as well by left arrow (leave directory) and right arrow (enter to directory). An in my opinion, this behaviour much better, rather than navigation by 'Backspace' key. I haven't seen that work in Total Commander, but as long as we're on the subject of comparing, here's one thing I miss: In Total Commander you can quickly sync up your left and right panes to the same place by using the drive letter dropdown, even if they were both already on the same drive to start with. Is there a quick way in mc to set one pane to where the other one is? Alan -- Credit is the root of all evil. - AB1JX ___ mc mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc

Is there a quick way in mc to set one pane to where the other one is? Unless things have changed in a newer version that I have not yet installed, this is an old feature. Use Alt-i to make the other panel to show the same directory, and you can also use Alt-o to make the other panel go to the parent directory of the current one. BTW, these two items are well documented. Theodore Kilgore ___ mc mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
go to parent directory with backspace
Hi, In Total Commander there is a very handy feature: with backspace you can quickly jump to the parent directory. It'd be nice if this feature were added to MC too. If the bottom command line is empty and backspace is pressed, it could be interpreted this way. Or is there another shortcut for going back to parent? Pressing Home + Enter is 2 keys :) Thanks, Laszlo ___ mc mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
