Terminal Emulator - ctrl-c
- Thread starter t1n0m3n
- Start date
Not a question with an easy answer. I am using the Full Keyboard app, but I really don't like it. The best would be if the terminal itself would implement an easy way to input keys like ctrl alt and escape.
There is a bug filed with connectbot, which is the terminal emulator I use, and I have added my voice to the clamor for a solution, but who knows when that will happen. If you are an android developer you might give the source of your terminal a hack and whip up a patch...

How can FN keys be emulated in softkeyboard?
What about Fn keys?
I use SSH to x servers and used to mc a lot. Swype is pretty pointless there even with dedicated directional keys.

It looks like the makers of "terminal emulator" fixed the swype/backspace issues, but have yet to fix the special characters issues.
It seems like a phone that does not have a camera button *and* does not have a trackball is not considered in a bunch of apps. Terminal Emulator and Crystallight are two shining examples.

it works !
But how to get last command used or prompt ?
I belive you are using this app:
github.com/jackpal/Android-Terminal-Emulator
(cannot add as link...grrr)
Not many people using Terminal inside Android I recon, but I will, sometimes I'm using adb as well.
Any better Terminal you have?
I successfully install MC but cannot run in this terminal:
"Error opening terminal : xterm"

As noted above -- just check the Help screen for whatever terminal emulator you're using and see what hardware keys/combinations are mapped to the CTRL characters. As with the others just above, the emulator I'm using has Vol-Dn + [letter] mapped to CTRL-[letter], so Vol-dn and C = CTRL-C. Just tried it out -- started up Top in the emulator, and this killed it perfectly.
No effect after pressing volume up + w for up arrow -- terminal emulator from jackpal dude, gboard keyboard. Needs to install hacker keyboard which works, separately.
Connectbot works fine in this scenario although I am using this one due to it's light size and it is recommended by many.

Volume down + C was not working for me (with Gboard) till I saw someone suggest a different keyboard. Volume down + C works fine using Samsung keyboard.
