6 sakura - A simple but powerful libvte-based terminal emulator.

9 sakura [options...]
10
12 sakura is a terminal emulator based on GTK+ and VTE. It's a terminal
13 emulator with few dependencies, so you don't need a full GNOME desktop
14 installed to have a decent terminal emulator.

92 sakura supports keyboard bindings. They are configurable by setting the
93 following properties in your sakura config file
94 (~/.config/sakura/sakura.conf).
95 ACCELERATORS
97 Accelerators can be set to any mask value from the GdkModifierType in
98 gdktypes.h; see:
99 http://www.krugle.org/examples/p-6R7SuZt1c28ljzpZ/gdktypes.h
101 or, on your own system:
103 /usr/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdkkeysyms.h
105 Mask values can be combined by ORing them.
107 For example, to set the delete tab accelerator to Ctrl + Shift:
109 del_tab_accelerator=5
111 because GDK_SHIFT_MASK has a value of 1 (1 << 0), and GDK_CONTROL_MASK
113 has a value of 4 (1 << 2); ORing them together, you get 5.
114 I realise that this configuration is not so friendly to non-
116 programmers, but it is a start. :)
117 KEYS
119 For example, to set the add tab key to 'T':
120 add_tab_key=T
122 Before sakura used keycodes instead of strings. They're still valid.
124 DEFAULTS
126 Ctrl + Shift + T -> New tab
127 Ctrl + Shift + W -> Close current tab
128 Ctrl + Shift + C -> Copy selected text
129 Ctrl + Shift + V -> Paste selected text
130 Alt + Left cursor -> Previous tab
131 Alt + Right cursor -> Next tab
132 Alt + [1-9] -> Switch to tab N (1-9)
133 Ctrl + Shift + S -> Toggle scrollbar
134 Ctrl + Shift + Mouse left button -> Open link
135 F11 -> Fullscreen
136 Shift + PageUp -> Move up through scrollback by page
137 Shift + PageDown -> Move down through scrollback by page
138 Ctrl + Shift + Up -> Move up through scrollback by line
139 Ctrl + Shift + Down -> Move down through scrollback by line
140 You can also increase and decrease the font size in the GTK+ standard
142 way (not configurable):
143 Ctrl + '+' -> Increase font size
145 Ctrl + '-' -> Decrease font size
