We'll share major progress updates in this issue! So please subscribe (GitHub watch)

See the Custom Keybindings GitHub Discussion to report bugs and workarounds. This helps us keep it all in one place.

• Custom keybindings support #500

Try to use this precedence when referring to the keybindings: CTRL-ALT-SHIFT-CMD-KEY

Here's a summary of current requests and whether we've fulfilled them.

non-key

• leader key (like tmux)

bugs

• ESC -> in theme selector should exit
• ESC -> in font selector should exit

misc

• ENTER -> Ability to configure whether enter executes command or inserts new line (CMD-ENTER to run)
• ALT -> in alt-screens to bypass mouse selection (vim)
• ALT-. -> iterate over the arguments of prior commands
• ALT-LEFT -> move word left
• ALT-RIGHT -> move word right
• ALT-CMD-DOWN -> multi-cursor down
• ALT-CMD-UP -> multi-cursor up
• CMD-, -> to quickly open settings tab
• CMD-G -> find next item (in find)
• CMD-L -> clear last block
• CMD-M -> to minimize the window
• CMD-LEFT -> move to start of line
• CMD-RIGHT -> move to end of line
• CTRL-CMD-F -> toggle full screen on Mac
• SHIFT-ALT-UP -> duplicate current line in direction up
• SHIFT-ALT-DOWN -> duplicate current line in direction down
• SHIFT-CMD-G -> previous item (in find)
• SHIFT-CMD-P -> command palette (VS Code)
• SHIFT-CMD-T -> Reopen recently closed tab, pane, or window like in chrome
• SHIFT-CMD-UP -> select all lines vertically (up)
• SHIFT-CMD-DOWN -> select all lines vertically (down)
• SHIFT-CMD-ENTER -> expand pane to take full window

autosuggestion

• CTRL-LEFT -> autosuggestion backward
• CTRL-RIGHT -> autosuggestion forward (whole line)
• ALT-RIGHT -> autosuggestion forward (word)
• ALT-LEFT -> autosuggestion backward (word)

emacs

• CTRL-A -> move to start of line
• CTRL-B - move back one char
• CTRL-C - interrupt
• CTRL-D - delete forward one char - if on empty command line = exit term
• CTRL-E - move to end of line
• CTRL-F - move forward on char
• CTRL-G - visual bell + exit command history search
• CTRL-H - delete back one char = backspace
• CTRL-J - line feed - useful for editing multiline commands without executing them
• CTRL-K - kill to end of line (kill buffer)
• CTRL-L - clear screen
• CTRL-M - carriage return (not needed?)
• CTRL-N - move down / next in history
• CTRL-O - accept current line and queue next line in history - run after history search or history browse
• CTRL-P - move up / prev in history
• CTRL-Q - continue after term output stop (after CTRL-s)
• CTRL-R - search history backwards
• CTRL-S - stop term output (continue with CTRL-q) - or history search forward
• CTRL-T - transpose chars
• CTRL-U - kill backward beg of line
• CTRL-V - makes next character types verbatim (quotes it)
• CTRL-W - kill word backward (kill buffer)
• CTRL-Y - yank kill buffer
• CTRL-Z - suspend process

collisions (clashing requests)

• CMD-BACKSPACE -> To delete current block.
• CMD-K -> command palette
• CMD-LEFT -> switch terminal tab left
• CMD-RIGHT -> switch terminal tab right
• CTRL-H -> move to split pane left
• CTRL-J -> move to split pane down
• CTRL-K -> move to split pane up
• CTRL-L -> move to split pane right

Hey everyone!

We recently launched an update with support for setting custom keybindings. We have directions on our documentation.

Will share bugs that have been reported and updates as we iterate.

Set up an emacs keymap by following the directions in this repo:
https://github.com/warpdotdev/keysets/

We also added emacs functionality for navigating up and down lists with CTRL-N and CTRL-P!
