This really belongs to the menu, not to the hints file.  Perhaps somebody
was lazy to change the menu, so he added a hint (there were no hint
translations back then).

F13 is Shift-F3 on most terminals.  As far as I know, Linux console is the
only terminal that uses Shift-F1 for F13 in some keymaps.  The builtin 
keymap uses Shift-F3, but the default US English keymap uses Shift-F1.

I even considered calling "dumpkeys" from mc to compensate for this
madness and force F13 to be Shift-F3 (and fix other F1x keys as well).

Unfortunately, the "File" menu is too long already.  Perhaps "Quick cd" 
and group operations belong to the left and right menu, but I don't want 
to move stuff around before the release.
