Follow-up Comment #5, patch #5899 (project mc):

the first patch had a flaw:
holding backspace ended in chdir to / - added a timer
pressing bs during search ended in cd.. - dosearch(panel,key) invoked
instead

see attached patch.

dont understand why this bug moved arround. are bugreports the wrong place to
send such patches? where should i?

Follow-up Comment #4, patch #5899 (project mc):

finals make time short - sorry
i use the backspace navigation for about two weeks and noticed it can be a
anoyance as well as a welcome one hand navigator when searching lots of
directorys. i will add a config option and more intelligence before
submitting a patch.
this feature is more intrusive in behaviour than expected: it will turn the
commandline in the background because focus will be needed for simmilar
handling like blank=diskusage. typing a nonaction character turns the option
off and returns to the current behaviour.

is the kind of modification the right one or would you point out a different
position in the modules?
something that publishes the state of the commandline to outside modules?

dont expect fast progress

peace
