4.0.5: Hotkey L to 'Hide/show the folder pane' does not work yet #228

Since upgrading from 102 to 115 has this shortcut stopped functioning.

Nostalgy++ 4.0.5 Thunderbird 115.3.1 Ubuntu 23.04

yes, the folderpane has been rewritten in core and the old commands don't exist anymore.

By the way, there is a native TB shortcut doing the same.

Oh, what a pity those hotkeys are gone, they added to the greatness of Nostalgy.

Yes, the lengthy shortcut sequence is alt + v + l + f. It seems to work on both, Windows and Linux. But it isn't listed on Thunderbird's Keyboard shortcuts documentation, so probably most users will fall back on hovering the mouse.

Also, there exists the add-on tbkeys-lite, which allows to customize Thunderbird's keybindings, but by default it doesn't come with a configuration which toggles the folder pane.

In case one day the situation changes and it became a low-hanging fruit for Nostalgy to bring these hotkeys back, that would be a plus.

For the meantime, I guess we best close this issue.

in 4.0.9 or higher (upload coming)

Thank you @opto :)

I can confirm that it works with manage_emails_nostalgy_pp_4.1.0-tb.xpi.

Besides of Linux, I also tested on macOS and Win11.
