Ctrl + "[" , Ctrl + "]" - bring the full path in the left panel or the right panel respectively into the command line (so Ctrl"+"[" and then Ctrl+Enter will bring full file path of the file under the cursor into the command line)
Ctrl + PgUp - move up the folder tree
Ctrl + U - swap panels (so the cursor goes from one panel to another, useful when you operate in 2 folders primarily, saves you an Alt+Tab)
Ctrl + LeftArrow, Ctrl + RightArrow - makes one of the panels larger or smaller
Ctrl + 1,2,3,5 - change panel layout (file name 1 column, file name 2 columns, file name with attributes, file name with more attributes)
etc. There's a lot. Not even mentioning all the plugins built in the last 20 years.
Fun fact: it was written by a 24 yo college student (graduate?..) from Chelyabinsk and was pretty much functionally complete couple years later. The same guy who designed RAR file format and built WinRar around the same time.
- vanous 3y agoThank you! Much appreciated! mc has a "list of bookmarked directories", does far supports such a feature, with a shortcut to bring up the dialog to choose an entry from the list? I haven't found such thing... Only to have particular single directory on a shortcut, which means that I would have to remember the number corresponding to each path...
- octobus2021 3y agoThe closest would probably be FAR menu (F2) where menu options can be edited; you can probably just do "cd [name]" for menu options. I believe there's also history of commands issued in "Alt+F8". So... kinda.
