Hi all,
I'm coming from Windows/Linux Mint and I'm in this behaviour since forever to use the backspace key for navigation in several programs such as nautilus/nemo/explorer, firefox/chrome, etc.. How can I get the backspace behaviour globaly in gnome 3.18? I want to navigate back using the backspace, in all possible programs. I'm using Arch i686 dual boot with Windows 8.1.
Thanks in advance!

There is most probably no way to set this globally, however for Firefox a quick web search reveals for example:

Hi respiranto,
thank you for the link. I've found different solutions for some programs, but I thought there may be a general solution, but it seems that there is no general solution, so I will solve it for each program separately when possible.

The free and open software world is a totally decentralistic place, so every developer decides for himself how to let his software interact with the user. Therefore standardization does mostly only take place where it's absolutely necessary.
I think, this is actually desirable, because elsewise there would not be such a great choice. There would be one web browser, one file manager, one text editor, etc., like it is for Windows and OS X, except for the web browser maybe.
Pleas mark your thread as [solved] by prepending it to your first post, unless you have further questions concerning this topic.
