Emacs shortcuts12/27/2023 ![]() A second Ctrl+ r recalls the next anterior command that corresponds to the search Ctrl+ r : (reverse search) recalls the last command including the specified characters.Ctrl+ p : ( previous) recalls the prior command (equivalent to the key ↑).Ctrl+ o : Executes the found command from history, and fetch the next line relative to the current line from the history for editing.Ctrl+ n : ( next) recalls the next command (equivalent to the key ↓).Ctrl+ l : Clears the screen content (equivalent to the command clear).Ctrl+ k : Clears the line content after the cursor and copies it into the clipboard.Ctrl+ h : Deletes the previous character (same as backspace).Ctrl+ g : Abort the reverse search and restore the original line.Ctrl+ f : Moves the cursor forward one character (equivalent to the key →).Ctrl+ e : ( end) moves the cursor to the line end (equivalent to the key End).If there is text on the current line, deletes the current character (then equivalent to the key Delete).(Only if there is no text on the current line) Sends an EOF marker, which (unless disabled by an option) closes the current shell (equivalent to the command exit).Ctrl+ c : Sends the signal SIGINT via pseudoterminal to the current task, which aborts and closes it.Ctrl+ b : Moves the cursor back one character (equivalent to the key ←).Ctrl+ a : Moves the cursor to the line start (equivalent to the key Home).Tab ↹ : Autocompletes from the cursor position.For example, pressing Alt+ f in Xfce's terminal emulator window does not move the cursor forward one word, but activates "File" in the menu of the terminal window, unless that is disabled in the emulator's settings. On some systems, Esc must be used instead of Alt, because the Alt shortcut conflicts with another shortcut. See Editor war § Comparison.Įmacs editing mode key bindings are taken from the text editor Emacs. Readline supports both Emacs and vi editing modes, which determine how keyboard input is interpreted as editor commands. ![]() As a cross-platform library, readline allows applications on various systems to exhibit identical line-editing behavior. It allows users to move the text cursor, search the command history, control a kill ring (a more flexible version of a copy/paste clipboard) and use tab completion on a text terminal. It is currently maintained by Chet Ramey as part of the GNU Project. GNU Readline is a software library that provides in-line editing and history capabilities for interactive programs with a command-line interface, such as Bash. I made a brief search for the main page of the web html manual (from which all the other pages are linked) and could not find it. Please ask if you need help on any of these things.īesides, I have got a vague feeling that posted the name of the association map where all on the keyboard shortcuts are defined, but I did not find it and I might be wrong.įor the missing webpage: IMHO the html manual on the website could benefit from better linking, I think I already said it to the main developer but I have got the feeling that we will have to keep it like it is. Moreover this blog post could help: there are hints on how to find out the names of Scheme commands, which you need for defining your owns. You can refer to the manual for how to change these shortcuts. The complete list (again, I think) is available only in the code, under progs/generic/generic-kbd.scm. The key combinations that are supported in the emacs look and feel are only partially listed in that page I think. I think the starting point for finding information on that is, where I have read that ctrl -> and ctrl <- are the key combinations you are looking for.
