ctrl-o opens file path in cursor, shift-tab goes back in history

[daretodave]

anywhere on the terminal, ctrl-o opens the file path

determine the desired open path:

• highlighted text first
• editor window line next
• result finally

one desired path is established:

• if file
  • open editor
• if path
  • open folder in explorer

For open editor actions:

STORE all the editor actions in a stack

• ctrl tab brings up a window with the prior opens in a list

  • this creates a back and forth flow

  • releasing ctrl-tab takes you to the first selected historical action

  • pressing ctrl-tab again, cycles to the next action (then eventually back to the top)

  • keeping ctrl held leaves this new "list pane" open

  • releasing ctrl closes the window

  • pressing down or tab when the window is open has the same effect (cycling through history)

  • pressing up goes back up the list (or nowhere) if at the current action - 1
