1. Shift + F6 = Move to other pane
2. Ctrl + F6 = Copy to other pane

Customizable if you press Shift + F9

---

Create a button in the toolbar or a user defined command
Use a script (if you have the non-free version):

Code: Select all

tab("new", "%computer%");

There is a tweak for this. You would do this:

Code: Select all

StartPathNewTab=This PC

Thanks, but it's unusable :( Custom programs' shortcuts are impossible to remember, when there are standart shortcuts everywhere... And customizing to make program have industry standart shortcuts is not a good way.

F5 for refresh and F6 for moving focus are far more standard than copying/moving items between panes.

Are you seriously proposing that because you (1) refuse to learn new/different shortcuts and also (2) refuse to configure XY as desired, that everyone else should modify their behavior?
