Issue

Why do you block the keyboard commands (with "Ctrl") in the terminal? This is one of the most annoying things about native terminals ...

You could have at least one option in the settings to allow or not to use.

I have the same PB with 2.0, therefore none of my keyboard shortcuts work.

• [x] I am on the latest Hyper.app version

• [x] I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate

• OS version and name: ubuntu 17.10 on xorg

• Hyper.app version: Hyper 2.0.0 (stable) from deb

• Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js: https://gist.github.com/monkeydri/4e3d8d184ec50f9b04bbe88c76a85bf2

• Relevant information from devtools (CMD+ALT+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere): no error/log in console

• The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app: yes

Note : Keyboard shortcuts do work with Ctrl+Shift but I don't want this extra key press.

[Stanzilla]

All keybinds are configurable, see https://hyper.is/#keymaps

[capi1O]

Hum yes as I did (see the gist of my .hyper.js in my previous post).

Thing is does not work with ctrl+key keyboard shortcuts.

[Stanzilla]

I see, yeah CTRL keybinds seem to be the cause of a LOT of issues.

[capi1O]

still happening in 2.1.0- canary

[capi1O]

much better in 2.1.0-canary.2 ! but still few caveats.

based on same .hyper.js I porvided earlier :

  keymaps: {
	"tab:new":"Ctrl+T",
	"window:new":"Ctrl+Shift+N",
	"pane:close":"Ctrl+W",
	"editor:undo":"Ctrl+Z",
	"editor:redo":"Ctrl+Y",
	"editor:cut":"Ctrl+X",
	"editor:copy":"Ctrl+C",
	"editor:paste":"Ctrl+V",
	"editor:selectAll":"Ctrl+A"
}

• ctrl+V/A/W/T works
• ctrl+C does not copy selected text
• ctrl+X does copy selected text (to clipboard) but does not remove it
• ctrl+Z/Y do not undo/redo

[capi1O]

same problem in Hyper 2.1.2 (stable)

• ctrl+c => does not copy but returns instead (abort current command)
• ctrl+x => cannot quit in nano editor

[LordNouda]

Same problem. Since tab switching is done with ctrl+shift+left/right I want to use ctrl+left/right to switch between panes (the default ctrl+pageup/pagedown is messing with scrolling in the terminal). Not working. My alternative ctrl+alt+left/right is also not working.

Hyper 2.1.2 (stable) on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS Plugins: hyper-one-dark (1.0.0), hyper-highlight-active-pane (0.1.0), hyper-search (0.1.1), hypercwd (1.4.0)

• [x ] Your Hyper.app version is 3.0.0-canary.8.
• [x] I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate

• Any relevant information from devtools? (CMD+ALT+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere): N/A
• Is the issue reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app? I think so.

Issue

I'm having issue with ctrl-, which I think is similar to this bug, but mine could be different. Basically, in emacs, I use ctrl-\ as undo. Hyper seems to be eating Ctrl-\ for some reason. I can't find it mapped to anything. If I just run bash.exe and load emacs, then Ctrl-\ works fine. Other Ctrl commands are working for me (C-x whatever). It just seems to be Ctrl-\ that disappears somewhere between my keyboard and emacs.

Hyper looks awesome but this is a total blocker for me as I live inside emacs and its blocking ctrl combos

[jflatow]

For my undo key (C-_), xterm.js wasn't passing through the key at all. This patch fixes that one though I'm not sure if there's a more general/correct solution: https://github.com/xtermjs/xterm.js/pull/2052

[raybotha]

This is quite a blocker for me too, supporting both Ctrl+C copy and interrupt is keeping me on Terminator.

[antonk52]

I have a related issue. I do not see ctrl+/ in the current darwin shortcuts yet I am unable to use it in my editor.

[charlysotelo]

This is a bit issue for me as well. I love Hyper, but this might cause me to switch.

[capi1O]

On windows ctrl+c actually works after the keymap setting for editor:break is changed (default is ctrl+c).

[fqzhou]

I have a related issue. I do not see ctrl+/ in the current darwin shortcuts yet I am unable to use it in my editor.

I meet the same same issue. I use hyper in win10 with window subsystem for linux (ubuntu18). I find in the emacs25 the key combination 'ctrl+/' does not function, while in other terminals like 'cmder' the key combination functions well.

[jdheyburn]

For the record - I get this on Linux too.

$ cat /etc/os-release                                            
NAME="Pop!_OS"
VERSION="19.04"

[wethinkagile]

@didrip suggestion does not work for me, even though it recognizes the changes. I then tried the altIsMeta property in the config file and got an JS formatting issue error message. Can somebody explain how the modifierKeys / altIsMeta JSON property is supposed to look like syntactically?

[charlysotelo]

Why was this closed?

	"window:new":"Ctrl+Shift+N",
	"pane:close":"Ctrl+W",
	"editor:undo":"Ctrl+Z",

	"editor:cut":"Ctrl+X",
	"editor:copy":"Ctrl+C",
	"editor:paste":"Ctrl+V",

}

• ctrl+V/A/W/T works
• ctrl+C does not copy selected text
• ctrl+X does copy selected text (to clipboard) but does not remove it
• ctrl+Z/Y do not undo/redo

I tried your method, and I noticed that you need to convert "Ctrl+A" to "ctrl+a" so it would work. Also, ctrl+c will conflict with break command so I move break to ctrl+d. Here is my keymap:

  keymaps: {
	"tab:new":"ctrl+t",
	"window:new":"ctrl+shift+n",
	"pane:close":"ctrl+w",
	"editor:undo":"ctrl+z",
	"editor:redo":"ctrl+y",
	"editor:copy":"ctrl+c",
	"editor:paste":"ctrl+v",
	"editor:selectAll":"ctrl+a",
	"editor:break":"ctrl+d",
  },

[miltongq]

At some point this was just a syntax issue, this issue should be closed by now.

Does this mean that xterm.js will require code for every possible Ctrl+ combination? Seems like this may be a possible resolution for https://github.com/zeit/hyper/issues/4251 as well.

[ronilaukkarinen]

I'm looking for ctrl+a = go to the beginning of the line and ctrl+e = go to the end of the line. How do I do this with hyper?

[ronilaukkarinen]

Never mind, figured it out:

keymaps: {
  // Example
  // 'window:devtools': 'cmd+alt+o',
  'window:home': 'ctrl+alt+a',
  'window:end': 'ctrl+alt+e',
},

[hexcowboy]

It looks like <C-^> (Ctrl + ^) is blocked. This is the key stroke for going to the previous file in vim.

[huix9527]

same issue, ctrl+/ blocked, losing faith
