[Konsole-devel] Konsole and control characters...

[Constantin Berzan]

Hello,
In KDE3.5 Konsole sends the following control characters:

ctrl+right  - ^[[1;5C
ctrl+left   - ^[[1;5D
alt+right   - ^[[1;3C
alt+left    - ^[[1;3D

These are the same codes that xterm sends so I'm assuming they are 
the "standard."

In KDE4 however, it sends ^[[1;*C and ^[[1;*D for both Alt and Ctrl.

Here's a patch to revert to the old behavior. Moving one word forward / 
backward with ctrl+arrows works now. If I am missing anything, please 
enlighten me (I have no idea why this was changed in the first place.)

There are also different control chars for Alt+PgUp, Alt+PgDown, Ctrl+F* and 
Alt+F*, but I don't use them so I left them alone. Probably they should be 
changed too.
