- NeXtMidas command shell keyboard shortcuts (hotkeys)
-
The following lists the keyboard shortcuts available on the interactive
NeXtMidas command shell. When the keystoke is separated by a dash "-"
it means to press and hold down that specified key followed by the key
specified after the dash, hence
CTRL-A , means to hold down
the 'CTRL ' key, then press the 'A ' key while
the CTRL key is still pressed. Note that the letters are
case insenstive, hence CTRL-A is the same as CTRL-a .
--- Navigation --- |
Keystrokes | Result |
CTRL-A | Move the cursor to the being of the line |
LEFT ARROW or
CTRL-D | Move the cursor to the left one space |
CTRL-E | Move the cursor to the end of the line |

--- Command History --- |
Keystrokes | Result |

CTRL-N | Get next command in history |
UP ARROW or

CTRL-P | Get previous command in history |
--- Other --- |
Keystrokes | Result |
BACKSPACE or
CTRL-H | Erase one char back from cursor |
CTRL-C | Kills NeXtMidas shell (via interrupt signal) |
CTRL-L or
CTRL-R | Refresh line |
CTRL-U | Delete line |
CTRL-W | Delete previous word (kill all spaces followed by
all non-space) |
TAB | Attempts completion of current command, including
results and filenames (since NeXtMidas 2.3.0) |
- It is important to note that
CTRL-C (which kills the Java VM) is trapped
by the Operating System which then sends the interrupt signal to the Java VM. The
CTRL-C is not handled by NeXtMidas.
