I kind of disagree (I mean, ctrl+insert/shift+insert works consistently, right?)
The one time I get really frustrated with conflicting keyboard shortcuts is when trying to do terminal work in a web browser, through, like the odd KVM session when SSH is down. The number of times I instinctively pressed Ctrl+W to correct a word in bash and instead close the whole session... Or, depending on emulator, inability to paste. Even more frustrating that these situations are commonly high-pressure.
- klodolph 6y agoThe insert key is consistent, but it’s so far away that it comes with a bunch of typos. I just can’t consistently hit keys that are so far away from the home row. Same with the Windows home/end for sending the cursor to the beginning/end of line. That entire block of keys is only useful for navigating documents, they’re just unergonomic to use when you’re also typing.
- 3np 6y agoYeah I get you. For home/end: Ctrl+A/Ctrl+E for all shells, ^/$ otherwise
