So it seems that my remapping of them in. [Update – I've found that the original tmux key combo's for this – actionKey + " and actionKey plus % (no wonder I've remapped them!) do actually work on my mac, i.e. I thought I had found it for the native window pane splitting within iterm splitting with the settings below, changing Working Directory from Home directory to Reuse previous session's directory:īut it didn't work, I'm still getting my home directory in new panes for Iterm window panes. Note this is not about switching tmux panes, that works, and it's not about switching Iterm panes as in iterm – what's the key-combo to switch panes? and the advanced configuration didn't seem to take effect either:ĭoes anyone know the key combo or mapping I can use/make to get the 'tmux split and stay in directory' functionality on my mac. I can use the Iterm menu itself and/or the shortcut key combos it shows but these all seem to be are Iterm split windows not tmux and the one thing they don't do is set the same directory, they go to the my home directory ( ~). This is really handy for all my terminal work. With or without these mappings I can't figure out how to remap the key combo's on my mac that let me divide the terminal window and stay in whatever directory I'm currently in, for the new window. I'm including them anyway.On my linux machines, for my terminal shell I have tmux keys mapped to allow me to split windows and then switch between new panes. Like, if you open Terminal.app on Mac some of these still work because it's the shell and not iTerm. Some of these are not directly related to iTerm and are just "shell features". FunctionĮnter Character Selection Mode in Copy ModeĬopy actions goes into the normal system clipboard which you can paste like normal. There's no need to Copy to the clipboard if you have General > Selection > Copy to pasteboard on selection enabled. I instead just mouse select (which copies to the clipboard) and paste. Moving by word on a line (this is a shell thing but passes through fine)Ĭursor Jump with Mouse (shell and vim - might depend on config)Ĭopy and Paste with iTerm without using the mouse (go to beginning of current line) but that doesn't work in the shell. For example ⌘ + Left Arrow is usually the same as Home Keys and Mac equivalents don't always work. It works in many contexts.Ī lot of shell shortcuts work in iterm and it's good to learn these because arrow keys, home/end Instead of typing exit, just get this in muscle memory. In general, use this instead of typing clear over and over. If you use ⌘ + K, this is telling iTerm to clear the screen which might have the same result or do something terrible (like when using a TUI like top or htop. This is telling the shell to do it instead of an explicit command like clear or cls in DOS. Especially when your last command was wrong by a single typo or something. Ctrl as modifier might also work on mac and non-mac keyboards/shells/apps. This takes you off the home row but it's easy to rememberįast way to jump by words to correct a typo or "run again" with minor changes to last command. Ctrl-R is faster if you know the string you are looking for. Use this with command history to repeat commands and changing one thing at the end!Ĭycle and browse your history with up and down. Use this to start over typing without hitting Ctrl-C Hopefully some of these improve your work life. There is also more than one way to do a thing so adopt what you like best. There are many shortcuts out there but I use these quite a bit. These will usually work in Bash/Zsh/Fish on Mac and on Linux. These are just common shell shortcuts unrelated to iTerm itelf. These might be helpful to getting you faster with the shell. ⌘+ Left Arrow (I usually move by tab number) ⌘ + Shift + Enter (use with fullscreen to temp fullscreen a pane!)Ĭtrl + ⌘ + Arrow (given you haven't mapped this to something else) ⌘ + Alt + Shift and then drag the pane from anywhere ⌘ + Shift + D (mnemonic: shift is a wide horizontal key) ⌘ + backtick (true of all mac apps and works with desktops/mission control)
