ctrl+k cuts a line. If you immediately cut another one (not even cursor movement is allowed) it will be added to the "clipboard", else it will replace the buffer. ctrl+u pastes. alt+6 copies the current line (only), but with a little muscle memory I prefer just pressing ctrl+ku. alt+u = undo, alt+e = redo (may be off by default in some distros) ctrl+z = backgrounding (may be off by default in some distros, toggle for current session with alt+z) ctrl+o resembles more "save as" rather than "save", as ctrl+x asks for confirmation if the file was modified. When asked for a filename, alt+d switches windows/unix line endings. ctrl+r cats a file to current cursor position. ctrl+rx pipes a command to cursor position (ideal with `blkid` when writing a fstab!) ctrl+c shows the in-file progress you see when opening a file (normally, status messages last 20 keystrokes: the more you know!) ctrl+g moves cursor to arbitrary line. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
