Hi all,
is there an effective way to make the cursor wrapping around the entry list (files or directories) while holding down the UP or DOWN arrow?
Thank you!

Not that I know.
If this were a default, I would hate it.
There are the Home and End keys if I want a fast move to the ends.

Why is the current method ineffective? It is the same as in other programs with lists.

Re: Wrap around cursor
Yap, there are other programs which can't allow to wrap around file lists, however, I've found very useful to set SpecialCursorMovement=2, i.e. "left key" goes one directory up, while "right key" opens directory/archive, and suddenly I felt nostalgic of old-fashion DOS-based programs. You might not even need to move your forearm to press Home or End. In this hypothetical scenario I would like the key "Home" and "End" to behave as intended, but with wrapping around on top of it.

Re: Wrap around cursor
There is a wrap around mode when using quick search or quick filter with search dialog. By default, Total Commander uses Ctrl+Alt+Letters for quick search, but you can change this via Configuration - Options - Quick search.
You can search for a letter and then press backspace to display all the files.

Re: Wrap around cursor
You can make a shortcut for the cm_QuickSearch command (under Configuration -> Misc.)
Then you can use that shortcut to open QuickSearch in non filtering mode, and you can now wrap around using the Arrow up and Arrow down keys - Notice that if you use the PageUp or PageDown keys, then the Quick Search will be closed.
This will work regardless of the setting in Configuration -> Quick Search.
You will need at least Total Commander 11.00 for this.
