ok this is going to sound stupid, but I don't care. learning time, for me.
do you type the literal characters "esc + ." or do you press CTRL+[ then period, or do you push the escape key, then period, or do you push escape and period at the same time?
I'm not at a terminal to try any of this and find out for myself.
- snug 6y agoI press and hold escape first then period
- naikrovek 6y agoESC isn't a control code like CTRL or SHIFT or ALT - so holding it while you press another key is weird, to me. But pressing and releasing ESC and then pressing and releasing period works excellently. Thank you.
- snug 6y agoAhh nice, yeah, that works, I always just assumed I needed to hit ESC first, but didn't know they didn't need to be held at the same time
