To start search with a single keystroke from within lcmd f.e. with F3 edit your lcmd.rc file

{{{
//   cmdViewFile                   (key=VK_F3                        ) // Files->View
   cmdFindFile                   (key=VK_F3                        ) // Commands->Find File...

}}}

== History ==

I took over the sources mainly cause there were a few things in Alessandros version which I didn't like. But with the current version, I'm quite happy. There was zero feedback on the latest versions although I think the FOC integration is a major improvement. Seems all users are satisfied or no one using it anymore. Currently I don't see any need for further development.
