Debian bug #383965 - http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=383965 I would like to have an option for the interactive mode to be able to just preserve all files by pressing enter instead of typing "all" and then pressing enter. 3 extra characters might not seem like much, but it gets tiring when you have lots of files to review. For now, I'll use the mouse to paste "all\n".

Actually, pressing ENTER should be enough to skip a file set and keep all files...!

New interactive mode will make it possible to preserve all duplicates by pressing the "A" key without also having to press the "Enter" key.

Was this ever implemented? Pressing enter just repeats the prompt for me in 1.51.

That's a good point jbruchon.
