Keyboard Navigation

I find the way Tinderbox works very intuitive:

child = something nested in a directory
parent = one hierarchical level towards the root

  • arrow right opens a directory and selects the first child
  • arrow left selects the parent, no matter which child was selected but leaves the directory open
  • arrow left + command folds (closes) the selected item if it is an open directory
  • up and down move in single steps
  • type the first unique part of the title to select anything visible
  • command-f to find in hierarchie
  • Shift-Command-P to remove/reset text formatting

Something else may come in handy: To change the background colour of the library window and drop pad per library, so it’s easier to spot in Exposé.
