\subsection{Shortcuts} \label{ref:Shortcutsplugin} The Shortcuts Plugin allows you to jump to places within the file browser without having to navigate there manually. The plugin works with \fname{.link} files. A \fname{.link} file is just a text file with every line containing the name of the file or the directory you want to quickly jump to. All names should be full absolute names, i.e. they should start with a \fname{/}. Directory names should also end with a \fname{/}. \note{This plugin cannot read Microsoft Windows shortcuts (\fname{.lnk} files). These are handled by a separate plugin; see \reference{ref:Winshortcutsplugin}.} \subsubsection{How to create \fname{.link} files} You can use your favourite text editor to create a \fname{.link} file on the PC an then copy the file to the \dap{}. Or you can use the context menu on either a file or a directory in the file browser tree, and use the ``Add to shortcuts'' menu option. This will append a line with the full name of the file or the directory to the \fname{shortcuts.link} file in the root directory of the \dap{}. (The file will be created if it does not exist yet.) You can later rename the automatically created \fname{shortcuts.link} file or move it to another directory if you wish. Subsequent calls of the context menu will create it again. \subsubsection{How to use \fname{.link} files, i.e. jump to desired places} To use a \fname{.link} file just ``play'' it from the file browser. This will show you a list with the entries in the file. Selecting one of them will then exit the plugin and leave you within the directory selected, or with the file selected in the file browser. You can then play the file or do with it whatever you want. The file will not be ``played'' automatically. If the \fname{.link} file contains only one entry no list will be shown, you will directly jump to that location. The file \fname{shortcuts.link} in the root directory is an exception. After ``playing'' it, the list will be shown even if the file contains just one entry. If the list you are seeing is from \fname{shortcuts.link} in the root directory, you can delete the selected entry by pressing \ActionStdMenu. Deleting entries from other \fname{.link} files is not possible. \subsubsection{Advanced Usage} Placing the line ``\#Display last path segments=n'' (where n is a number) in the beginning of a \fname{.link} file will leave just the last n segments of the entries when they are shown. For example, if n is chosen to be 1, then the entry \fname{/MyMusic/collection/song.mp3} will be shown as \fname{song.mp3}. This allows you to hide common path prefixes. You can also provide a custom display name for each entry individually. To do so, append a tabulator character after the entry's path followed by your custom name. That name will then be used for showing the entry. For example: \begin{example} /MyMusic/collection/song.mp3My favourite song\symbol{33} \end{example}
