Jumping to Address Bar in Nautilus Like F6 in Windows

  • 772

How can I go to the address bar in Nautlius using the keyboard? I find it annoying to have the mouse each time I want to copy the path of some files. Not to mention that Nautilus by default don't have an address bar, so I need to spend to keep clicking buttons and menu items until I get the address!! Any idea?
