But it doesn't go home, it just scrolls fast.

are you using the private folder? like said before using the "private" folder would still make the files viewable in file manager.

This one's very simple and most people would know it already. To move between the text fields on a form (like user id / password email settings etc) you can use just the up and the down arrows. These act as 'tab' and 'shift + tab' on a pc.

Filename completion:

In the terminal window (Ctrl - Shift - x), rather than type in a very long file name (or full path name to a file), you can get the shell (the '$') to complete the filename for you.

You do this by typing the first few characters of the file and then clicking the tab button on the screen.

For example, start up the shell window. You will see the prompt :

~ $

to list the files type

ls

you get

~ $ ls
MyDocs
~ $

lets say you want to change director to 'MyDocs'

type:

~ $ cd M

then hit the Tab button on the X Terminal screen and you will see
that the shell completes the filename for you. This results with:

~ $ cd MyDocs/

This comes in very handy if you have very long pathnames.

This would be so damn helpful if I could figure out how to do it. I thought I was clicking the correct buttons but it's not working.
Help?

additionally this shortcut allows you to open multiple instances of xterm whereas clicking on the icon in the menu will just bring u back to the instance already running.

Useful if you want to run more than one command at a time or have one window in root and one not

@scouser
you can also use ctrl+i for autocomplete

@foxtrot
what's the dashboard? not familiar with the terms but
ctrl+backspace takes you to the mutitasking panel if that's what you're looking for.

In the browser, instead of circling your finger around, you can pivot your finger on a point in the screen, motioning in the direction you want to go. (zoom in:right, zoom out:left)

Like you're trying to drill a hole in the screen. (gently)
