Fast shortcut for FTP connection

(1/2) > >>

alpe:
I am very happy using the MC.
I always want to use the keyboard, rarely with the mouse. I need to FTP shortkey, but Ctrl-F is for Filters.
Please drop down list of option letters: C, D, E ... for drives and the letter R for FTP (Remote FTP).
I hope that few users have so many of drives and the letter R is free.
What about a shortkey for closing connection with FTP server?

Mathias (Author):
If you got a RAM drive, may put that drive on R. and even if you got lots of drives or mounted devices you do not need to fill it up from A to Z
So we can't assuming that R is free.

FTP can be reached in many other ways.. you can type FTP: in command line bar. and you can create an alias for that so you only need to type R in the command line field.

Or you add FTP: to one of the ten quick paths in favorites so you can access it from any of the Ctrl+0 to Ctrl+9 shortcuts.
Or you can create a user defined command that goes to the pash FTP: and then assign any shortcut you want (almost) to that.

In Keyboard Customzation udner module Explorer Panel and Category ModuleSpecific commands you find the entry "Disconnect / Eject / Remove Device"
That is the command that is called when pressing the "Disconnect" button. There you can assign a hotkey for that.

Thanks for explanation.

How to call this explorer panel, this after: Alt-F1 (or F2) - FTP, and create shortkey?

Mathias (Author):
Eh?
How to create shortcut ?  You do that in Keyboard cusotmization or in the Favorites windows for the Favorites Quick Paths.
All Depends on what you want to do
