I tried it, I like it a lot, but I did find an issue straight away.

I'm on MacOS and I have remapped the fn and command keys so it can be more like Windows (I can't undo 20+ years of muscle memory, and also I just don't wanna)

Anyway, Fresh seems to ignore the remapping - it's back to the command key for copy/paste and the command palette.

Is there a way to access the dropdown menus by keyboard? I can see F underlined for File but no modifier key seems to make it happen

I'll need to look into this, not sure what remapping does to the incoming key events.

Also I'm already working on a ui for customizing the key bindings so you could do whatever you wanted. (Currently managed by undocumented json)

Thanks for reporting!

Alt+F should open the File menu. I guess that's Option+F on MacOS. Does that work?

You have to turn on "Use Option as Meta Key" in your terminal app's keyboard settings. (Terminal.app has it under Profile/Keyboard)
