Keybindings

Every binding is remappable, and bindings can be two-step chords. Defaults follow the common Linux terminal conventions.

Defaults

Keys	Action
`Ctrl+Shift+T`	New tab
`Ctrl+Shift+W`	Close pane
`Ctrl+Shift+D`	Split right
`Ctrl+Shift+E`	Split down
`Ctrl+Shift+Right` / `Left`	Focus next / previous pane
`Ctrl+Tab` / `Ctrl+Shift+Tab`	Next / previous tab
`Ctrl+Shift+C` / `V`	Copy / paste
`Shift+PageUp` / `PageDown`	Scroll a page
`Ctrl+Shift+Plus` / `Minus`	Font larger / smaller
`Ctrl+K`	Command palette, including the Save this session as a layout and open layout rows (Saved layouts)
`Ctrl+R`	Recall a command from history; a second `Ctrl+R` hands the key through to the shell
`Ctrl+Shift+F`	Search scrollback
`Ctrl+Alt+Shift+F`	Search every pane: one query across every pane of every session
`Ctrl+Shift+J`	"Go to where I left off" - jump the focused pane to the rule where you stopped reading, when there is one to jump to
`Ctrl+Shift+Space`	Pick mode: label every token on the focused pane's screen. Set by `pick_key` under `[terminal]`, not `[keybindings]`
A label's letters	In pick mode: narrow to that token and act on it with the default action (copy, or `pick_default_action`); in uppercase, copy and insert
`Tab`	In pick mode: next kind filter (all, url, path, path:line, hash, ip, string, line)
`Enter`	In pick mode, once a token is picked out: the default action
`Shift+Enter`	In pick mode: insert the token at the prompt without running it
`Ctrl+Enter`	In pick mode: open a URL, or a `path:line` in VS Code when the `code` command is installed
`Ctrl+Shift+S`	In pick mode: save the token as a snippet
`Esc`	Close a management view, back to the grid; leave pick mode (so does `Ctrl+C`)

Defining your own

Bindings live under [keybindings] in config.toml, as "modifiers+key" = "action". A user binding overrides the default for the same combo.

[keybindings]
"ctrl+shift+t" = "new_tab"
# Two-step chords use ">": press ctrl+a, then c.
"ctrl+a>c" = "new_tab"

Modifiers: ctrl, shift, alt, super (also spelled cmd or win).
Keys: single characters (a-z, 0-9, punctuation) plus enter, tab, space, escape, backspace, delete, the arrows, home, end, pageup, pagedown, plus, minus.
Actions: new_tab, close_pane, split_right, split_down, focus_next, focus_prev, next_tab, prev_tab, copy, paste, scroll_page_up, scroll_page_down, font_larger, font_smaller.

The quake hotkey

One binding is global: an OS-wide hotkey that shows or hides the Termuna window while any app has focus, the drop-down-console habit. It is off unless set, uses the same grammar (hotkey = "F12" or "ctrl+grave" under [quake]), and is also settable in-app under settings. An invalid spec never blocks startup; it logs a warning and stays unregistered.
