File Transfer keyboard support

I’m totally new to Royal TSX and its File Transfer plugin. I always use two-panel file managers, and it seems to me natural to use keyboard to select file(s), download/upload, open, delete, etc. I tried setting up Command Task / Key Sequence Task, hoping to assign a keyboard shortcut to File Transfer’s actions available in the right click menu, but I misunderstood the purpose of Tasks, they seem to be for command line only.

Hi Michael,

in this case, the best solution is to map the keyboard shortcuts using the standard macOS keyboard shortcuts (found under

“System Preferences - Keyboard - Shortcuts”).

I hope that helps!

Kind regards,

I looked through the commands available in the system shortcuts, but there is nothing from Royal TSX or File Transfer to map shortcuts to. I don’t think this method would work to “keybordify” the file browsing experience to the level of Total Commander / ForkLift / Midnight Commander / etc.

I’m closing this request as discussion was continued here: Add Plugin's actions menu.
