I am trying to bind a shortcut to perform cut
command in iTerm2. Obviously, cut
is bound to Cmd + x, but I would also like it to be bound to Ctrl + w.
I did this easily for paste
by going to iTerm2 → Preferences → Profiles → keys
and setting the action to paste
.
But there is no cut
action.
So how can I achieve this?
For some other actions which don't appear listed, I have used their escape code or hex code representation as shown in answers to the question iTerm - going one word backwards and forwards.
I wonder where can I find a list of these representations and their actions?
Ideally, I would like to have Ctrl + w cut the selected text, or if there is no selection, then the entire line. Is this possible?
My goal is to make iTerm2 work more like Emacs.

button, enter theCut
menu title and press Control-W for the keyboard shortcut, and clickAdd
