Keyboard shortcuts

Keyboard-only use

Session list: ↑ ↓ move between rows, → opens a folder (or steps into it), ← closes it (or goes to the folder above), Home / End jump to the first or last row, Enter connects, and Shift+F10 (or the context-menu key) opens the row's actions, where the arrow keys and Esc work. Rows have descriptive labels for screen readers.

Tab bar: ← → switch tabs, Enter moves into the tab (the terminal or file list), Delete closes it, F2 renames it and Shift+F10 opens its menu.

Files panel: ↑ ↓ move between files; Alt+↑ or Backspace opens the parent folder.
