Open Any Folder from Your GNOME Desktop
Today we have a quick tip for productivity in your GNOME desktop. This
is not a well-known technique, but it is very fast and a quick way to
open any folder.
While on your desktop (either with no windows open or with the desktop
focused) type / (forward slash). Now type in a folder path and hit
Enter. The directory will be opened in a new Nautilus window. On top
of that, it will also autocomplete most paths.
For a quick usage example, say I want to get to /var/lib quickly.
Instead of having to open Nautilus and navigate to it, I just type the
path out on the desktop. /var/lib Enter, and boom, I'm in the folder.
