kat800, Key bindings — Amber Linux

All of kat800’s key bindings on one page, laid out to print. The leader is Ctrl+A by default and is set in ~/.config/kat800/config.toml; the chords themselves are fixed. Press the leader twice to send it through to the shell.

A moment after the leader, an overlay lists what can follow, as in Emacs and Vim, so the chords do not have to be memorised: press the leader and read the menu.

Fires regardless of what has focus.

At the bash prompt

These are readline’s defaults rather than anything kat800 does, so they work in any bash prompt. Inside a pane they reach the shell untouched, with two exceptions: Ctrl+A is the leader, so press it twice to send it to bash, and Ctrl+N / Ctrl+P step through matches while the search bar is open.

Moving the cursor

Readline's defaults, so they hold in any bash prompt.

Keys	Action
`Ctrl+A`	Go to the beginning of the line
`Ctrl+E`	Go to the end of the line
`Ctrl+F`	Forward one character
`Ctrl+B`	Back one character
`Alt+F`	Forward one word
`Alt+B`	Back one word
`Ctrl+X Ctrl+X`	Toggle between the start of the line and the cursor

`Ctrl+K`	Cut the line after the cursor
