Extra shortcuts #12

It would be nice having a shortcut to navigate upwards and downwards in the sidebar (sort of like a next/previous article shortcut) without having to actually go there by pressing shift-cmd-e. Also, while actually navigating on the side bar, it would be interesting if the files were loaded and displayed on the go (without having to open it by pressing return). The return key could be used to go into edit mode, that is, moving the cursor from the side bar to the editor.

(I said this in another issue, but it is worth stressing the point: the side-bar is not resizable and too small as it is. It won't display the name of 99% of my files which have a 14-digit unique ID attached to their names. E.g. 17112018070016).

Other than that, it is a beautiful app. Congratulations.

Hi Bernardo,

The next major version of Caret will work as you said. It will open the files directly and Enter will go into edit mode. Additionally, the sidebar will be resizable. The only thing we are not sure we will include is a shortcut to directly move items without focusing the sidebar.
