Keyboard Shortcuts
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.
