Its probable that other users of file servers have them mounted (or whatever
the Windows word is) so they access by something like `//server/foo/file.blah`.

Ctrl-F works to do it, thank you! Btw, any other shortcuts that aren't listed
apart from those two?

should provide completion
* Ctrl+F (or just typehead, e.g. start typing in

Ah, ok, wildcards, indeed I didn't see that. However, although I didn't know

acts as one). It's not a *filter* as it doesn't change
Ctrl-L lets you type in a path, but it won't accept wildcards like *. So
again, I was able to type *file* to show all files in the current path that
contain "file" in the filename.
