How to set ctrl+c to copy, ctrl+v to paste and ctrl+shift+c to kill process in xfce4-terminal?
Accepted answer doesn't work anymore (e.g. xfce4-terminal 0.8.7.4
on lubuntu 18.04.2
) because of the GTK3 change, as said HERE. It would seem that the only way to change the keyboard shortcuts is by modifying the config file:
~/.config/xfce4/terminal/accels.scm
Open the file, search for 'copy' and replace ; (gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/terminal-window/copy" "<Primary><Shift>c")
with (gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/terminal-window/copy" "<Primary>c")
That is: change the shortcut, but also remove the ;
before the line.
The same for "paste", replace: ; (gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/terminal-window/paste" "<Primary><Shift>v")
with (gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/terminal-window/paste" "<Primary>v")
Restart terminal.
In xfce terminal go to Edit
, hover your mouse over Copy
and press ctrl+c.
Same goes for paste.
Kill process gets automatically reassigned to ctrl+c+shift.
