Bug ID: 452413
Summary: Terminal pane: control codes use command key
Product: kate
Version: 21.12.2
Platform: macOS (DMG)
OS: macOS
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: application
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: fisher521...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When I use Kate's terminal and tried to use some control codes (e.g. ^C, ^D), I
noticed they didn't work. It turns out, to send control codes, I need to use
the command key (⌘) instead (e.g. ⌘C, ⌘D). This is rather unintuitive, because
on macOS, I'm used to pressing the actual control key to send control codes.
Furthermore, this means that I can't copy using the familiar shortcut ⌘C, I
need to right click and click the copy button.
I suggest reverting this and sending control/command normally, without
translation.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Kate on macOS
2. Try to send SIGTERM by pressing CTRL+C
OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens
EXPECTED RESULT
^C is sent to the terminal
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
macOS: 11.6
