auto select single folder about diskonaut HOT 4 CLOSED

Seems like a good idea.

Hmm... I understand what you're saying, but I'm a little concerned about auto-selection for first-time users who don't yet "get" what the marked tile is. (If it appears because you did something as a user, I think you would immediately understand what it's for).

What would you think of instead of this, when going into a folder that just has 1 tile, we would automatically go into that tile's folder directly (recursively until we get to a folder with more than 1 rectangle)? So that if I'm in:
/home/aram/ and I enter /home/aram/something which only has 1 folder called data, I would immediately get to /home/aram/something/data.

Going directly to a folder with more than one rectangle could also confuse some users.

Maybe then a command line switch or config file entry, so you could control both options.
You could for example have diskonaut select the biggest tile when there are many, and if there's only one, go down the folder hierarchy.

I usually like avoiding command line switches to control behaviour unless it's an extreme circumstance (eg. text-only mode or something like that).

How about if we add a "hidden" feature, wherein if you press "ENTER" and nothing is selected, the app goes into the largest folder?
