Request for keyboard shortcuts

Description Mohammad Ghasemi 2015-07-26 02:32:10 CEST
If I could set 4 more keyboard shortcuts for Thunar I wouldn't have to take my hands off the keyboard at all. I know that in order to be able to change a keyboard shortcut for a task, a menu item for that task should exist. So I want 4 menu items:

1-Change tabs
2-Create file (there is an "emtry file" menu item as a submenu of "create document", but you can't set a shortcut for that)
3-Go to removable media

Thank you for your great work!

1: You can switch the tabs using Alt + (1..9)
2: As a workaround, you can do: Alt + F, D, D, E
You could also create a custom action calling a script which would call zenity asking the file name and then "touch" it. I know, too kludgy :D
3: If you use the same named volume, in my case "PENDRIVE", you can create a shortcut on the side pane(/run/media/<user>/PENDRIVE) and assign a accelerator to it in Go -> PENDRIVE.
