Terminal Shortcuts

The client is meant to be driven from the keyboard. Press ? anywhere outside a text field to see the current list without leaving the page.

In the console

Shortcut Action
Enter Run the command on the line
Tab Complete the command, argument name or value
Up / Down Previous and next command from the history
Ctrl+C Clear the command line
Ctrl+A Jump to the start of the line
Ctrl+E Jump to the end of the line
Ctrl+U Delete from the cursor to the start of the line
Ctrl+F Hand Ctrl+F to the browser's own find, when that setting is on
Ctrl+Alt+Left / Ctrl+Alt+Right Previous and next agent tab

Ctrl+F is deliberately configurable. In the console it normally focuses the page's search; operators who want the browser's find inside a long scrollback can turn that over in Settings.

Anywhere in the client

Shortcut Action
Ctrl+P or Ctrl+K Open the command palette
Ctrl+, Open settings
Ctrl+Shift+D Open or close the side panel
Ctrl+F Focus the current page's search box
? Show this list, when nothing is taking typed input
Ctrl+S Save the listener being edited

On macOS, Cmd stands in for Ctrl in all of these.

The list in the app is generated from the same declaration the client uses to bind the keys, so it cannot drift from what the shortcuts actually do. If a chord here disagrees with the one the app shows, the app is right.
