Keyboard shortcuts

These are the current macOS bindings. They are fixed in this release; there is no shortcut editor in settings.

Action Shortcut
Toggle projects sidebar Command-B (⌘B)
New terminal session Command-T (⌘T)
Save file Command-S (⌘S)
Next session Command-Shift-] (⌘⇧])
Previous session Command-Shift-[ (⌘⇧[)
Next project Command-Option-Down Arrow (⌘⌥↓)
Previous project Command-Option-Up Arrow (⌘⌥↑)
Close tab Command-W (⌘W)
Next tab Control-Tab (⌃⇥)
Previous tab Control-Shift-Tab (⌃⇧⇥)

Command-T opens a terminal in the active project. Session and project shortcuts wrap from the last item to the first. Command-W closes the active editor or GitHub tab; if no tab is active, it does nothing.

When a terminal has focus

Command-based app shortcuts continue to work while a terminal has focus. For example, Command-T, Command-B, and Command-W still act on ködade.

Plain keys and Control chords stay with the shell. That includes Control-C, and it also means Control-Tab and Control-Shift-Tab do not switch editor tabs while a terminal has focus. Move focus to the file tree or editor before using those two tab shortcuts.

For save and conflict behavior, see Edit and save files. For the live theme picker, see Settings and themes.
