Ctrl+Arrow Keys #329

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

I would like keyboard navigation to work more like in PuTTY. Ctrl+Left and 
Ctrl+Right should let the cursor skip to the prev/next words.

You need to configure your shell accordingly. See 
http://code.google.com/p/mintty/wiki/Tips#Readline_configuration for how to do 
this for bash.

By way of explanation: mintty uses xterm keycodes for such key combinations, 
whereas PuTTY uses its own non-standard scheme. Neither are mapped to word-wise 
moves by default in Cygwin.
