bug: FzfxFileExplorer -> Cannot cd into a directorie with ALT-L on mac

[nstirnemann7]

Its how the title says, if I press ALT-l nothing happens, if I press ALT-L = Ò, that symbol appears, the easy solution would be to change the keymaps, but i dont find in the config how to change the default keymaps for FzfxFileTree

After pression ALT-SHIFT-L

After pressing ALT-l

System : Latest Macos
Using : lsd in replacement of ls
Neovim Version : nightly
Plugin Manager: Lazy
Config for fzxf: don't pass any opts

On WSL works as intended

hi @nstirnemann7 , you can use below config (use CTRL-L to cd into, use CTRL-H to go upper):

require('fzfx').setup({
    file_explorer = {
        interactions = {
            cd = {
                key = "ctrl-l",
            },
            upper = {
                key = "ctrl-h",
            },
        },
    },
})

Based on different terminal app (iterm2 on macOS, Windows Terminal on Windows, gnome terminal on ubuntu gnome, and others like wezterm, alacritty, kitty), some ctrl/alt keys could be override by terminal app.

(It's true that this plugin's configs is quite complicated), you can refer to:

fzfx.nvim/lua/fzfx/cfg/file_explorer.lua

Lines 288 to 299 in be08a30

	M.interactions = {
	cd = {
	key = "alt-l",
	interaction = M._cd_file_explorer,
	reload_after_execute = true,
	},
	upper = {
	key = "alt-h",
	interaction = M._upper_file_explorer,
	reload_after_execute = true,
	},
	}

This Works! Thanks! I assume this problem happen in the mayority of 60% percentege keyboards, where random combinations give you symbols or glyphs because the keyboard is too short (ALT-l = ¬) (ALT-h = ˙)

Resolved!
