  <title>Keyboard shortcuts</title>

  
Keyboard shortcuts are combinations of keys that allow you to perform

  actions, such as opening the settings dialog or accessing a feature inside

  <app>Terminal</app> quickly. These shortcuts can be modified to suit your

  preferences.

  
To change a keyboard shortcut:

  <steps>

    <item>

      
Select <guiseq><gui style="menu">Edit</gui>

      <gui style="menuitem">Preferences</gui>

      <gui style="tab">Shortcuts</gui></guiseq>.

    </item>

    <item>

      
Make sure <gui style="checkbox">Enable shortcuts</gui> is selected.

    </item>

    <item>

      
Make sure <gui style="checkbox">Enable shortcuts</gui> is selected.

    </item>

    <item>

      
Select the shortcut that you wish to edit by clicking on it.

    </item>

    <item>

      
Once the shortcut is selected, click on the shortcut key combination

      to edit it.

    </item>

    <item>

      
Press your desired shortcut key combination as you would enter it to

      use it. The keys that you can use include <key>Alt</key>,

      <key>Alt Gr</key>, <key>Ctrl</key>, <key>Shift</key>, <key>Super</key>,

      number and letter keys.

      <note>

        
Mnemonic key combinations, such as <keyseq><key>Alt</key>

        <key>F</key></keyseq> will not work.

      </note>

    </item>

    <item>

      
Once you have entered your new shortcut, it will automatically be

      saved and you should see it in the list next to the corresponding

      action.

    </item>

  </steps>

  <note style="tip">

    
To disable a shortcut, edit it and press the <key>Backspace</key>

    instead of the new shortcut.
