Anyone know is there some conf file or something that can be edited to add/change keys to the virtual keyboard? I am running the shipped Arch linux.
Thanks for your suggestions.
what user interface you are using, plasma, phosh, gnome, etc. if you are using stevia, then i think following applies. (disclaimer: i have pinephone regular and pro, not pinetab.)
you can set terminal keyboard options with gsettings. get the settings first and then set them. be careful about quotation marks and apostrophies. setting is a string, which has table and table has mostly strings inside.
this setting is stored at the user level, not root level.
Code:
[alarm@danctnix ~]$ gsettings get sm.puri.phosh.osk.Terminal shortcuts
['<ctrl>', '<alt>', 'Up', 'Down', 'Left', 'Right', '<ctrl>r', 'Home', 'End', '<ctrl>w', '<alt>b', '<alt>f', '<ctrl>v', '<ctrl>c', '<ctrl><shift>v', '<ctrl><shift>c', 'Menu']
[alarm@danctnix ~]$ gsettings set sm.puri.phosh.osk.Terminal shortcuts "['<ctrl>', '<alt>', 'Up', 'Down', 'Left', 'Right', '<ctrl>r', 'Home', 'End', '<ctrl>w', '<alt>b', '<alt>f', '<ctrl>v', '<ctrl>c', '<ctrl><shift>v', '<ctrl><shift>c', 'Menu']"
