need info on menus

[Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis]

Hi Mike, your subject line mentions "menus" but your text mentions "a 
directory". Which did you mean to talk about? The Linux terminal does 
have autocompletion functionality (using the tab key) and GNOME menus do 
jump to the option with a first letter matching a keypress. For example, 
if I go to the Applications menu, then press U, the selection jumps to 
Utilities.
