[Bug 1793395] [NEW] [Suggestion] Change default keyboard shortcuts in Thunar

 

Public bug reported:

I would like to propose two changes to Thunar's default keyboard shortcuts.
The first change that I suggest is to add "F4" key as a shortcut to two existing custom actions that are responsible for opening the terminal in the current working directory. A similar solution is already present in different file managers like Kubuntu's Dolphin and Lubuntu's PCManFM, so it's something that some users may already be familiar with.

The second change I suggest is for the search option. Currently, the
search for the first matching name in the current working directory can
be performed by pressing the "Ctrl + F" shortcut and starting to type in
the search term. One could also start to type in the search term without
using any shortcut whatsoever. The result is the same. Given that you
can perform the same action in two different ways, I think "Ctrl + F"
shortcut could be reassigned to "Find in this folder" custom action
which opens catfish with a command "catfish --path=%f", so user could
perform recursive search.
