I have recently installed byobu terminal multiplexer, and I found that I am not able to move in a fast way through the terminal. In linux you can do: Control+Arrows (Left/Right). I want to find the same but in byobu.
And I would like to configure it, in order to be able to use Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right if it's possible, not other combinations.
Any idea?
I have tried already this: How to make byobu forward-word and backward-word with CTRL+arrow? But is not working for me. Ubuntu 13.10
Thanks in advance.
Answer
One way to change your key bindings is to edit /usr/share/byobu/keybindings/f-keys.tmux (or edit ~/.byobu/keybindings.tmux).
You will find these lines :
bind-key -n M-Left previous-window
bind-key -n M-Right next-window
M is for Meta, aka the ALT key. Example. Change the lines for :
bind-key -n C-Left previous-window
bind-key -n C-Right next-window
C for Ctrl key (and S for Shift key).
Save, quit, press F5 to reload profile.
