GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 131090
shift-arrow scrolling not implemented
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Description of Problem: In RedHat 7.2 the terminal emulator (I may have used kde and kconsole) had one line scrolling keys, shift-arrow-up and shift-arrow-down, that I found EXTREMELY useful. It also had shift-page-up/down that were very useful. In RedHat 9 the terminal emulator (gnome-terminal) has shift-page-up/down but does not have shift-arrow-up/down. I cannot find the parameter file or control mechanism that contains the key mapping defining shift-page-up/down. Redhat tech support seems to think this does not exist (redhat service request 279367). Is there a way to define shift-arrow-up/down to scroll one line? Redhat tech support thinks there is none. The shift-arrow-up/down keys are so useful they should be added. Ability to change these key bindings is not strictly necessary but should be added. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Open gnome-terminal window. 2. Use window. 3. Try shift-arrow-up/down. Does not work. Additional Information: This has been submitted to redhad bugzilla (bug 112927) and they have advised it be submitted to gnome bugzilla in hopes it would be permanently fixed there.
