Description Sven Herzberg 2004-05-27 14:06:44 UTC
open a gnome terminal
open a second tab <ctrl><shift><t>
go back one tab <ctrl><pgup>
try this again <ctrl><pgup>
";5~" appears in my shell (i would expect nothing to happen then)

dpkg -l gnome-terminal
ii  gnome-terminal         2.6.1-1    The GNOME 2 terminal emulator application
Comment 1 Sven Herzberg 2004-05-27 14:07:07 UTC
can someone pease verify this with gnome terminal 2.7.1?
Comment 2 Mariano Suárez-Alvarez 2004-05-29 21:35:41 UTC
This has happened for ever and still happens in 2.7.1.

The reason for this is that the keyboard shortcut are enabled/disabled depending
on which tab is currently active, so that when you are on the 1st tab, <ctrl>Up
is disabled, so, since it is not caught by the terminal app, is passed on to the
shell or whatever is running in the terminal. 
Comment 3 Leonardo Boshell 2004-05-31 03:29:14 UTC
Is that behaviour (the one Mariano describes) intentional or not? This might be
an invalid bug if it is. However, it would be nice to know the rationale behind
this decision.

By the way, this is a duplicate of bug #138609 (or the other way around :).
