    I love the fact that gnome-terminal, sublime text and google chrome are able to move tabs from the keyboard (ctrl + shift + pgup/pgdown).

    How would such feature fit into roxterm? As we are already able to move tabs with the mouse I guess it would not be too hard.

    Thanks.

    That should already be possible. Add this to your shortcuts config file:

    Tabs/Move Tab Left=<Shift><Control>Page_Up
    Tabs/Move Tab Right=<Shift><Control>Page_Down

    If you use roxterm's menu entries to edit shortcuts in 2.9.x beware of a bug (to be fixed in 2.9.5). You need to set the EDITOR variable in the environment roxterm is launched from, otherwise this menu item causes a crash.

    Thanks a LOT Tony, works well.

    May be a good idea to make it a default shortcut. Pretty common.
