Fix key settings (Home/End/Insert/Delete) in .zshrc when running Zsh in Terminator Terminal Emulator
To know the code of a key, execute cat
, press enter, press the key, then Ctrl+C.
For me, Home
sends ^[[H
and End
^[[F
, so i can put i my .zshrc
in my home dir
bindkey "^[[H" beginning-of-line
bindkey "^[[F" end-of-line
bindkey "^[[3~" delete-char
These codes could change with the terminal emulator you use.
autoload zkbd ; zkbd
will create a file with an array of keycodes to use, like bindkey "${key[Home]}" beginning-of-line
, and you can source a different file depending on the terminal.
Thanks to @lolesque, but the solution doesn't work with me. After using zkbd
to check my key binding, I came out the below solution. BTW, my $TERM
is xterm
.
bindkey "^[[1~" beginning-of-line
bindkey "^[[4~" end-of-line
Hope it helps.
For me on WSL2 (Windows 10) this was it
bindkey "^[OH" beginning-of-line
bindkey "^[OF" end-of-line
The cat
trick did not work for me as it printed ^[[H
as in the accepted answer but I was able to find out the ^[OH
sequence by typing Ctrl+v Home
in the new Window Terminal running zsh.
