In the manual (List View chapter) one can read about the Spot'n'Jump feature:
However I was not able to find out, which hotkey (shortcut) should jump the focus to the next (or - with Shft - previous) highlighted item in the list."A highlighting feature inspired by the Google Toolbar and the Firefox Find Bar.... Simply type in a string prefixed with ">" press Enter. The string will be highlighted in the file list wherever it's found (case-insensitive: a=A) and focus will jump to the next matching name.
Tip: You can jump upwards by holding Shift."
