All keyboard shortcuts are now stored in GSettings under org.nemo.keybindings and can be changed at runtime. A new Keyboard Shortcuts tab in Edit → Preferences lets users view, search, and rebind any shortcut using an inline key-capture widget. Changes take effect immediately without restart.

Additional configurable bindings included:

  • open-default — open with default application (unbound by default)
  • new-folder-alt — alternate new-folder key (unbound by default)
  • trash-alt — alternate move-to-trash key (unbound by default)

These allow distro or user profiles to add secondary bindings (e.g. F4, Insert, Delete) without changing Nemo's stock defaults.
