Hotkey for open folder

#1

Something like “Ctrl + O” would be helpful, since it’s generally the hotkey used for opening a folder. I find myself using it so much and it’s one of the only things that can’t be done by default via hotkeys. :slight_smile:

You can easily create your own set of key bindings (hotkeys) via Preferences: Key Bindings.

	{
		"keys": ["ctrl+shift+o"],
		"command": "prompt_open_folder",
	},

No need for it to be bound by default.

While Ctrl+O is a default key binding on many OSs for opening a file, there is none for opening folders.

Some people might use keybindings like ctrl+shift+o to open custom file/folder open commands provided by packages like FuzzyFileNav or ProjectManager instead. Just a question of taste.
