Hi, i recently found out that there was this feature to edit the path (since what version btw?). I really like it, it makes it much faster for me to get to a networkshare. Previously I would go to networkneighbourhood and then browse to the right share, now I can just enter \\pcname\share\directory and I'm right there! However, what's still missing (or I just can't find it ) is a hotkey to activate that title bar so I can edit the path without first using the mouse.
Actually, the command line does it all, and more: autosearch in the drop down list, keyboard shortcut etc. Just type "cd \\server\dir"
For the path edit you can define a shortcut and a button too, use the cm_editpath command.
I switched to Linux, bye and thanks for all the fish!

Right, i knew there had to be an easy and quick way to go to a networkshare of which you know the name without using that titlebar thing. Just hadn't thought of cd'ing to a share :D

tnx for the info (Y)

You could also do a Home - Shift-F6 (if inplacerenamepath is enabled).

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.

Thanks :).

Another undocumented shortcut - it looks like ^E has a company... %) I mapped another command to ^J but it looks like I missed nothing - IMHO ^Enter is more convenient. BTW, just in case you missed it - opposite to cm_PrevCommand command cm_NextCommand lost it's shortcut (^X) long time ago but it is rather convenient to navigate CL history with both this commands. So I mapped it to ^2.[/face]

Does anyone know if Ctrl+Enter (and Ctrl+J) are bound to a specific internal command and if yes which one?!

Ctrl+Shift+Enter and Ctrl+P do the same thing with the difference that the latter shortcut does not copy the path to the command line with quotes. I presume Christian this is triggered internally by TC and Ctrl+P is not bound to another internal command compared to Ctrl+Shift+Enter, isn't it?
