I use mc 4.1.36 (C) ported to windows(I use Vista). I would love to be able to navigate through the list of directories that I've previously visited using the drop-down except that I don't know how to invoke it. This version of mc i use does not have support for mouse. So, what is the KEY that will invoke this drop-down behavior ? Years ago, by accident, I invoked it but I forgot to document it.

According to the Midnight Commander docs in the default shortcuts for file panel actions:

+--------------+--------+----------------------------------+
| History      | Alt-H  | show the directory history       |
+--------------+--------+----------------------------------+
| HistoryNext  | Alt-u  | move to the next directory       |
|              |        | in the history                   |
+--------------+--------+----------------------------------+
| HistoryPrev  | Alt-y  | move to the previous directory   |
|              |        | in the history                   |
+--------------+--------+----------------------------------+

Alt-H in this case is an abbreviation of Alt-Shift-h
