Overrided CTRL+C -> CTRL+B not working

[andyoknen]

Hi!

I have not found a solution to my problem on the internet or here in previous questions. I am not a very big Linux expert and I solve most of the issues using the poke method. I need help or advice.

My process interrupt command (CTRL+C) has been redefined to CTRL+B - I did this to make it easier and calmer to copy from the terminal via CTRL+C

Everything works fine except for ET sessions. My main shell is zsh with ohmyzsh.
I also tried running ET via bash - it doesn't work.
I did not find any errors or anything related to the problem in the log with the verbose=1 option enabled on the server and client.

My OS - Ubuntu 23.10 6.5.0-21-generic

Maybe someone will have tips or recommendations on how to make CTRL+B work with ET?

When you say it doesn't work, what happens? Does Ctrl+c do nothing or does it do the original intent of that key?

hmm, I'm not sure about the behavior when I created this problem, but now I'm observing a cursor shift - one press of CTRL+B (redefined CTRL+C) moves the text cursor to the left by one character. If there is no typed text in the terminal line, nothing happens.

Maybe that is what Ctrl+b is supposed to do? What does Ctrl+c do in your setup?

CTRL+C is configured for copying to the clipboard at the OS level.
I think I can remove this reassignment at some point and check what CTRL+B does, I'll deal with it a bit later.
