Gnome Terminal Shortcut Keys

I’m a keyboard junky. I’ll admit it. Anytime I *have* to use the mouse I feel like I’ve just slowed down my work. Considering most of the work (at least my work) is done directly into the keyboard, taking my hand off the keys to move something is time I’m not getting back. To that extent I’ve collected a number of keyboard shortcuts to allow me to do as much as I can without ever leaving the keys. The shortcuts I wanted to share today are regarding maximizing, minimizing, un-maximizing, moving and resizing the gnome-terminal. Shortcuts Maximize: alt-F10 Minimize: alt-F9 Un-Maximize: alt-F5 Move: alt-F7 Resize: alt-F8 With these few shortcuts you should new be able to resize your terminals, shrink or enlarge them and even move them without leaving your keyboard. Thank goodness for shortcut keys. Where would we be without them? Ohh, yeah, I think its called Mac OS X 😉
