One of the reasons I would like to use and OFM like krusader is that I
want to avoid the use of the mouse as much as possible.

However to select a file I seem to find no keyboard shortcut
equivalent to left-click.

Am I missing something?

Hello,

that should work with Shift+Down or simply Space or even Insert (depending on
the selection mode settings you have defined in Konfigurator).

For me all these 3 -- Space, Insert and shift+down -- add to the
selection
Whereas left-click selects the file at current row (and unselects
anything else if selected)
Surely the left click-behavior must be on some key?

Dont know if this has any relevance but I am using krusader 1.90.0
under gnome

Ah okay, now i understand. I'm afraid there is no such key and you have to use
Alt+Minus to clear the selection first.

Alt+- does not work

Nor does Edit -> Unselect all

Only left-clicking seems to work!
