Tolis,

 type backquote (`).  On a QWERTY keyboard it's the key to the left of '1' and above Tab.

Neither luck nor trial-and-error.

It is buried in the documentation here: http://multicommander.com/docs/ExplorerPanel2 under the section 'Forward Keys'.

I'm one of the few who really does RTFM  ;D

the key to the left of the '1' key on a normal keyboard

I'll tidy up & expand that bit of the documentation if Mathias is OK with that.
