README.rst

A simple VTE-based terminal.

Termite looks for ``termite.cfg`` in ``$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`` (or ``~/.config`` if
unset) and then falls back to ``$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS``.

DEPENDENCIES
============

A vte version >= 0.30.

KEYBINDINGS
===========

* ``ctrl-shift-escape``: reload configuration file
* ``ctrl-shift-c``: copy to CLIPBOARD
* ``ctrl-shift-v``: paste from CLIPBOARD
* ``ctrl-shift-u``: unicode input (standard GTK binding)
* ``ctrl-shift-f``: start forward search
* ``ctrl-shift-b``: start reverse search
* ``ctrl-shift-j``: start forward url search
* ``ctrl-shift-k``: start reverse url search
* ``ctrl-shift-n``: jump to next search match
* ``ctrl-shift-p``: jump to previous search match
* ``ctrl-tab``: start scrollback completion
* ``ctrl-shift-space``: start selection mode

During scrollback search, the current selection is changed to the search match
and copied to the PRIMARY clipboard buffer.

With the scrollback search/completion widget open, up/down cycle through
completions, escape closes the widget and enter accepts the input.

TEXT SELECTION MODE
-------------------

* ``escape``: deactivate selection mode
* ``v``: visual mode
* ``h``/``j`` or arrow keys: move cursor left/right

TODO
====

* keyboard text selection
* tab and shift-tab bindings for completion
* better url matching regex
* hint mode overlay for urls (like elinks/vimperator/pentadactyl)
* scrollback search needs to be improved upstream [1]_
* expose keybindings in ``termite.cfg``
