Keyboard shortcut for going onelevel up in midnight commander [mc]
Is there a keyboard shortcut for going one level up in the directory tree in midnight commander (mc), which will save me from going all the up to the ..
?
As shown below - say I'm in a directory that contains tonnes of stuff, and its painful to scroll all the way up. Its clickable, but nothing beats keyboard shortcuts!
If you go to Options->Panel-Options and tick the "Lynx-like motion" option you can use left-arrow to go to the parent directory and right-arrow to enter a directory.
Does Home, Enter count as a keyboard shortcut?
Short answer: No.
Longer answer: Ctrl + PageUp goes to the last diretory - not the parent, but this may be what you want in most cases. (https://www.midnight-commander.org/ticket/2420)
