The complete keyboard mapping for Leopard’s Terminal.app


I’m a heavy keyboard user, so being able to navigate quickly through the command line is mandatory.

Leopard’s Terminal.app lacks the most useful keyboard bindings, like word boundaries moves, word deletion, even the Home and End keys don’t move your cursor to the beginning and end of the command line.

So, after experimenting for a while, I found the optimum keyboard mapping for my MacBook Pro. To see how it feels, open your Terminal.app. Then go to Preferences->Keyboard. Now just add the following maps. Note that the preference dialog will replace any existent key map.

Key Action Key Stroke Result
control cursor left \033b Esc+b Move one word backwards
control cursor right \033f Esc+f Move one word forward
control forward delete \027 Ctrl+w Delete word
end \005 Ctrl+e Move to the end of the line
home \001 Ctrl+a Move to the beginning of the line
option cursor left \033b Esc+b Move one word backwards
option cursor right \033f Esc+f Move one word forwards
page down scroll to next page in buffer
page up scroll to previous page in buffer
