Yeah keyboard is the way to go. My absolute favourite completely hidden shortcut in Finder is, because all hotkeys are modifier keys, you can quickly type a few unique characters of the dir/file name and it’ll jump right to it
- xanderlewis 3y agoYes! That’s quite nice. I quite like the fact that you can rename files by hitting enter and just typing. And space toggles a very quick preview that depends on file type. Finder’s not all bad!
- JoBrad 3y agoThe enter shortcut really threw me at first. Because everyone else uses enter to mean open the file. It just seems like an odd choice, since people open files far more often than they rename them.
- extraduder_ire 3y agoquicklook is great. (I think something like it is built into nautilus now) Hitting enter to rename a file threw me so hard initially that I muscle memorised the f2 shortcut for other systems.
