Summary: Use the Nautilus keyboard search facility
Product: konqueror
Version: unspecified
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: konq-bugs kde org
ReportedBy: ramjet templeofdin co uk
Version: 3.5.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from: Ubuntu Packages
Recently Nautilus introduced a splendidly usable "keyboard search facility" whereby \
pressing the first few letters of a file or directory name would take the focus to \
the next file or directory whose name started with the letters just pressed.
e.g. if you have are displaying a directory which ocntains the following directories \
and files:
Elvis
Foobar
Fred
Green Onions
Grexnix
Xerxes
Then pressing "fo" would make "Foobar" the selected item. Similarly pressing "grex" \
would select "Grexnix" etc.
I would like to see Konqueror adopt this behavious as it is damn useful for people \
like me who can't "see the file name for looking" but can soon find it by using the \
keyboard.
Thankyou.
P.S. Obviously the best way for you to see this in action is to use Nautilus and try \
it out but maybe asking a KDE developer to use a GNOME app might make their head \
explode :)
