The most important features of Midnight Commander (MC)
Since I was a big fan of Total Commander (TC), I priorize the MC's feature according to my TC's experience.
Here is the list (C = Ctrl, M = Alt, S = Shift):
| Feature | MC | TC |
|---|---|---|
| Bookmark | C-\, then "New Entry" | C-D |
| Quick Search | C-s or M-s | C-M-firstcharacteroffilename |
| Find File | M-? | M-F7 |
| Select Files by Pattern | + (- will unselect files) | C-F12 |
| Mkdir | F7 | F7 |
| Create New File with Vim | Shift-F4 | Shift-F4 |
| Edit File with Vi | F4 (See Use vi as Default Editor) | F4 (need configuration) |
| View File | F3 | F3 |
| Copy File Name | M-w (See mc.keymail.emacs | No hotkey |
| Copy Full Path to CLI | C-S-Enter | Don't know |
| Directory History | M-h (actually history of all the commands | Don't know |
