* thunar/thunar-window.c: Add backspace as shortcut for "Back".
* thunar/thunar-application.c: Save accelerators on exit and restore
them on startup. This way users can customize all shortcuts to their
needs and Thunar will remember those shortcuts.
* FAQ, docs/manual/C/Thunar.xml.in: Update the documentation.
* po-doc/Thunar.pot, po-doc/*.po: Merge new strings.

How do I assign different keyboard shortcuts? +================================================ + + If you want to rebind a shortcut, Thunar supports the standard GTK+ way + of changing shortcuts: simply hover over the menu option with the mouse + pointer and press the keyboard shortcut you want to rebind it to. + + To delete a keyboard assignment, press the Backspace key while you are + on the menu entry. + + If the shortcut doesn't change, then you need to enable the feature in + GTK+. This can be achieved in 3 ways: + + 1. If you are running Xfce 4.3 or above then you can enable "Editable + menu accelerators" in the "User Interface Preferences" dialog. + 2. If you are running GNOME then you can enable "Editable menu + accelerators" in the "Menu and Toolbars" control center dialog. + 3.

Where does Thunar store the keyboard shortcuts? +================================================== + + The custom keyboard shortcuts are stored in the standard Gtk accel map + format in a file located at + + $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/Thunar/accels.scm + + Lines starting with ; are comments.
