If you are more comfortable using the keyboard than the mouse, numerous keyboard shortcuts are available in CuteFTP.
In the table below (and elsewhere in this user guide), "ALT+" indicates that you are to press and hold the ALT key on your keyboard while simultaneously pressing one or more other keys. "CTRL+" indicates that you are to press and hold the CTRL (Control) key on your keyboard while simultaneously pressing another key. For example, "CTRL+SHIFT+D" indicates that you are to press and hold the Control Key and the Shift key, while simultaneously pressing the D key (to move items down the list in the queue). These key combinations are used instead of using the mouse to click in the interface. For example, press ALT+F to activate the File menu; press CTRL+C to copy selected text.
