Follow-up Comment #14, patch #1042 (project mc): Sure, please feel free to use a different dotdot patch. I'm not saying mine is the best. I just want this functionality to be in. As for my patch, I wasn't such an experienced programmer back then (three years ago!). I just reworked that entire

Well, I understand you want to start with the top-level group every time. I think both behavior can be useful, so this can be made a configuration setting. Now with hotkeys, the hotlist is even more convenient to always start with the root group, because it's easier to press ctrl-\ and a

contrib directory badly needed

Maybe we need a directory for contributed changes that don't integrate well into the main codebase. YES! I browsed this list's archives and found lots of proposed patches that were never included into mc. I think we need to go through them once again and sort them into those that must be

Now there is a Patches section on the mc BTS, so the situation is a lot better. I don't think so - it has a different purpose. Savannah account is a temporary storage for patches that are to be discussed and eventually either applied or rejected. What is needed, however, is a permanent

As for me, I'd rather have the hotkeys assigned to the entries. Me too. So I think the options are: 1. Warn the user if a new hotkey conflicts with that of a button, but perform no further action. 2. (I'd prefer this one) Just remove all hotkeys from the buttons, to aviod any confusion. This

2. (I'd prefer this one) Just remove all hotkeys from the buttons, to aviod any confusion. This is reasonable because the buttons are accessible not only via Tab, but by other keys (that cannot be entry hotkeys anyway): I think that would be inconsistent with other dialogs. Yes, but

I just submitted a big patch for hotlist.c to savannah.gnu.org: https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/index.php?func=detailpatchpatch_id=1042group_id=3521 It's against pre3 but not for inclusion in 4.6.0 release, maybe a next version. Please test it and report your experience. It works for me but I'm
