I'm using an older release, with the Mate desktop.  If I start typing a
filename, its cursor jumps to the files who's names start with those
characters, straight away.  And if there's more than one match, I can
cursor up and down between them.

I've not seen any filter feature in (older versions of) Nautilus, but
have in other file manager programs.

In the past, I've used emelFM2 as a much more featured file manager, I
only consider Nautilus to be in the class of a file browser.
