Xpdf Keyboard shortcuts

Xpdf is an alternative to Adobe's Acrobat Reader in Linux. It is fast and easy and simple to use.

However, it is also powerful. There are a whole slew of keyboard shortcuts that can be used in xpdf to enhance your productivity and xpdf experience. I have compiled a few of them below

g : Go to page
p : Go to previous page
n : Go to next page
b : Go to next page
w: Fit width
z: Fit page
f: Find in page
q: Close and quit
o: Open document
r: Refresh/Reload document

is there any way to navigate the "save" or "open" menus via keyboard? i can't seem to find a tab/autocomplete like function in the filter/selection boxes...

Thanks for the info. This has been really useful. I'm using xpdf frequently and I got tired of fiddling with the mouse.
