?[8.50b1x32] Better drive change handling

Post by *fenix_productions »

Hi

Using Alt+F1/F2 requires Shift key use to switch to new items.
Wouldn't it be possible to have just = and 8 keys used (w/o modifier)?

P.S. I am sadly surprised that cycling with arrows was not yet implemented.

Unfortunately "=" needs shift on many other keyboards too, including German and Swiss. And '8' is already used if you have 8 FTP connections open at the same time.

"+" and "*" can also be used from the numeric keypad, just like "/" for the network neighborhood.

Just wondering: how hard would it be to have configurable characters for it?

This way some users would just edit INI and set their own keys. I would i.e. use brackets which I have next to \.

I will check that, but I cannot promise anything yet.

What about ` key for My Computer? Or maybe we can use F... keys for special places? E.g. F1 for My Computer and F2 for My Documents.
