i.e., in Windows, say, when you press on F2, you can rename a file or
a folder.

I've looked and looked but have never found a keyboard shortcut once
I'm in the layers view and have selected a layer. I have to
right-click and choose Rename.

Is there any keyboard shortcut instead?

No. Right click and Rename or double left click for the properties
dialog and rename both work in all of the versions that I have. Single
left clicking on the name itself works in newer versions.

I can't believe how difficult this has been to find. I haven't found
any keyboard shortcut for going into rename mode in layers ... i.e.,
in Windows, say, when you press on F2, you can rename a file or
a folder. Once you're in the layers view and have selected a layer
you have to always do a mouse click via right-click and choose Rename.

Is there any keyboard shortcut instead like F2 in Windows environment?

You can type Alt-LP to bring up properties for the current layer and
rename there.
Additionally, you can assign Alt-FP to a single key (like F5, which
isn't used in my PSP).
