Version: 3.3 (using KDE 3.3.0, SuSE) Compiler: gcc version 3.3 20030226 (prerelease) (SuSE Linux) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-4GB In Konqueror you can quickly jump to a file by pressing its first letter. In my opinion this feature should ignore dots as first letter so that e.g. pressing w would jump to .wine. BTW: One could define the no more needed . as a convenient, easy to remember single-key shortcut for "Show Hidden Files". (Perhaps even as standard shortcut?)
All reports about file management mode reported against KDE 3 (konqueror) has been closed: konqueror in KDE 3 is no more developed and mantained. All bugs and wishes which could be interesting for Dolphin in KDE 4 (the new KDE file manager) has been collected into a specific list. Please try the new file manager before request new features and report bugs. Before submitting new reports check carefully the already opened KDE/Dolphin reports in order not to add duplicates. Many thanks.
