Hi everyone, I have been trying to setup some keybindings for screen but have been rather unsuccessful so far. The documentation is very difficult to understand / follow for me. I was wondering if someone could help me understand how to specify key combinations with modifier keys. I want to be able to switch terminals with either `escape key <arrow>' or `escape key C-<arrow>'. I would also like to change my escape key from C-a to C-q (easier to navigate in bash and emacs). These are my attempts so far: 1. Switching terminals: I tried the following for `escape key <arrow>', but it doesn't work. bindkey -d ^[[D prev bindkey -d ^[[C next Then I tried the following for `escape key C-<arrow>'. bindkey -d ^[[1;5D prev bindkey -d ^[[1;5C next This somewhat works. The problem now is, after swithing the terminals if I press the escape key for a subsequent command it is interpreted as the concluding part of a C-a C-a sequence and screen switches to the original terminal. To give you an example a sequence like this, `C-a C-<left> C-a A' is interpreted as `prev other A' instead of `prev title'. 2. Changing the escape key: This is more of an issue with the terminal emulator rather than screen. My terminal emulator (xfce4 terminal) doesn't pass on the C-q to screen. Strangely when I run emacs in the terminal (emacs -nw) or I run emacs within screen, C-q is passed along just fine. Any ideas? PS: I start screen with `term' set to `xterm' -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
