How do you do the "scan new folder only" trick? Do you have those
scripts on a repository or the like?

While my main LMS installations all run on Linux servers, my desktops
are Macs. But I _love_ keyboard control even in a graphical environment.
For my work I'm using a great Tool called Dash (https://kapeli.com/dash)
to give me instant access to many documentations (Perl, HTML, JS...).
Recently I've played with my own custom "docset" for Dash which gives me
fast access to some of the most important parts of the LMS UI. In
particular it allows me to run searches even faster than in the web UI
alone. And all of this with only a few key presses from anywhere in OS
X.

I'm not sure it's generic enough to be made available. It requires a
paid app and many probably consider it not much more than the web UI.
But for me it's much more accessible.

FWIW: the search page is a custom page built for this use. It's not the
default search page. The main difference being that it does raw queries
against the server (AJAX) rendering the page on the client, while the
default search page does render the HTML page on the server. The client
side rendering does improve performance on slower systems considerably -
assuming that the desktop system usually is rather fast in comparison
(and I'm running a MB Air, or a 5yrs old MBP!).
