I have recently installed Ubuntu 11.04 on my laptop and until I got used to Unity I couldn’t find the menu bar for the nautilus window. I found out later that the menu for the application in focus appears in the desktop menu bar. However I urgently needed to find a hidden file and I half remembered that the keyboard shortcut was Control-h. That worked and so I started looking up other keyboard shortcuts and have put them together in a list below. I hope they are useful to someone.
