- milestone: --> Distant future
Hi,
in iTerm, I'd like to bind command-Backspace to bash's backward-kill-word function, without changing bash's bindings (because I want this to work with the standard bash config on the many boxes I'm working on).
backward-kill-word is bound to "\e\C-h". In iTerm, there's "send escape sequence", "send hex code" and "send text".
"send text" does not seem to send any control characters at all, so that's out.
"send escape sequence" works fine for sending escape plus a single additional character, e.g. I use "d" to send "\ed", which maps to kill-word in my bash config. But binding "\C-h" won't work, and neither does "^h".
Then there's "send hex code". Since I want to send "\033\010" in octal, I figured the hex equivalent would be "1b08", or "0x1b0x18" (man ascii) - none of which work, unfortunately.
Is there a way to send multi-hex code?
Cheers,
Kal
