Signal Details

The "desktop-folder" signal

widget

The "down-folder" signal
 lambda (widget)    : Action      
A keybinding signal which gets emitted when the user asks for it. This is used to make the file chooser go to a child of the current folder in the file hierarchy. The subfolder that will be used is displayed in the path bar widget of the file chooser. For example, if the path bar is showing "/foo/bar/baz", with bar currently displayed, then this will cause the file chooser to switch to the "baz" subfolder. The default binding for this signal is Alt + Down.

The "home-folder" signal
 lambda (widget)    : Action

The "location-popup" signal
 lambda (widget path)    : Action      
A keybinding signal which gets emitted when the user asks for it.

The default bindings for this signal are Control + L with a path string of "" (the empty string). It is also bound to / with a path string of "/" (a slash): this lets you type / and immediately type a path name. On Unix systems, this is bound to ~ (tilde) with a path string of "~" itself for access to home directories.
