![]() ![]() ![]() For that reason, some people prefer to disable paste bracketing. Your next paste will include the bracketing control sequences, which will be mishandled by whatever program receives them. For example, if a program running in an ssh session enables paste bracketing and then your ssh connection ends unexpectedly it won't have a chance to turn it off. Sometimes paste bracketing can be left on, causing unexpected behavior when you paste. This can be useful because editors like vim may disable auto-indenting when pasting already-indented code. When enabled, iTerm2 transmits a control sequence before and after paste operations (e.g., pressing Cmd-V). Paste bracketing is a feature that can be enabled by an app running in iTerm2 by sending a control sequence. It should be disabled if you're communicating with an untrusted party, as there are possible injection attacks. You may disable this feature by enabling this option. Programs running in a terminal may send an escape code to request the current window title. If disabled, the mouse will always perform its default action (such as scrolling history) rather than being reported to an app that has enabled mouse reporting. This can be temporarily disabled by holding down Option. If selected, applications may choose to receive information about the mouse. Text to send when the ENQ sequence is received. If xterm-256color is selected and your system is missing the terminfo file, you will be prompted to install it when you open a new session. The TERM variable will be set to this value by default. For most people, "Unicode (UTF-8)" is the right choice. When in alternate screen mode, lines that scroll off the top of the screen will be saved to the scrollback buffer only if this option is enabled. Save lines to scrollback in alternate screen mode The screen is considered to have a status bar if it has a scroll region whose top is the first line of the screen and whose bottom is above the bottom of the screen. When this setting is enabled, lines scrolled off the top of the screen in the presence of a status bar are added to the scrollback buffer. For others (like tmux) you may want to save scrolled-off lines into the scrollback buffer. ![]() For some applications (like vim) it is undesirable to save lines to the scrollback buffer when the application scrolls. Some programs (such as vim or tmux) keep a status bar at the bottom of the screen. Save lines to scrollback when an app status bar is present Unlimited scrollback will allow it to grow indefinitely, possibly using all available memory. The number of lines of scrollback buffer to keep above the visible part of the screen. Now these keys should work the way your muscle memory (or at least my muscle memory) expects them to.Preferences Profiles Terminal Scrollback lines On OSX, I bind this to ⌘← ( Command-Left). Use Send Hex Code 0x01 for "move to beginning of line".On OSX, I bind this to ⌘→ ( Command-Right) as that seems to be the convention other apps follow. Use Send Hex Code 0x05 for "move to end of line".On OSX, I bind this to ⌥← ( Option-Left). Use Send Escape Sequence b for "move backward one word".On OSX, I bind this to ⌥→ ( Option-Right) as that seems to be the convention other apps follow. Use Send Escape Sequence f for "move forward one word".For the global keys go to Preferences > Keys and look for the symbols in (and remove them from) the "Global Shortcut Keys".Ģ) In either the profile or global shortcut settings (your choice) add the shortcuts back in, with the following bindings:.For the profile keys go to Preferences > Profiles > Keys and look for the ⌘←, ⌘→, ⌥← and ⌥→ shortcuts (and delete them if found.).There two different places to check-in the "global" keys and in the "profile" keys. Here's how to set them up (based on build 2.1.4):ġ) Clear out any per-existing bindings for these short-cuts. ITerm2 is a nice, customizable terminal emulator for OSX, but the typical cursor movement keys (such as ⌘← ( Command-Left) for "move to beginning of line and ⌥→ ( Option-Right) for "move forward one word") never seem to work for me out of the box. ![]() Setting up the cursor movement keys in iTerm2 on OSX ![]()
