^c and ^v work with hackers keyboard and Jota text editor. I can't say about other apps or keyboards as I have not tried.
Is ^+tab to switch window focus? If so it does not appear to work for me.
You are probably talking about using the dock. I don't have a dock.
I use hackers because it has all 4 arrow keys and supports ^ keys and alt keys, navigation is quick and painless.

So I was wondering what is the best shell access app out there, connect bot seems to be pretty nice but it seems to work a bit weird with the keyboard dock (tab is actualy shift, control keys don't work etc.) is there a better alternative?
And by better I mean something that works well with the keyboard dock. Having to work with a lot of unix servers it's really annoying to get used to new key bindings.
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
I don't know about a better one, but Hacker's Keyboard (install via market) is designed with connectbot in mind.
isn't that just another software (touchscreen) keyboard?
i need something to work with the keyboard dock
android terminal, or connectbot
and hacker keyboard
try switching out of the default asus keyboard. connectbot was weird for me too, but then i switched my softkeyboard to thumbkeyboard and weirdly enough, the hardware keyboard works normally now.
I don't need a signature.

It's quite weird but that seems to work lol...
BTW many thanks, this will make my life (or rather work) much easier
I wasn't able to get it working with ThumbKeyboard (my favorite for non-dock keyboard use), but after looking into various tablet optimized variants, I found out someone modified ConnectBot for the Transformer already:
https://github.com/lorantkurthy/connectbot
https://github.com/downloads/lorantkurthy/connectbot/ConnectBot.apk
Everything works for me with this except alt and escape, but search sends escape, so hurrah. (You have to go into options and turn on Transformer keyboard.) It's even tablet-optimized.
I'm using Irsii. It's a kind of connectbot fork.
Tab works directly on keyboard, I just find that the onscreen control button could be bigger...
I use Better Terminal Emulator Pro https://market.android.com/details?id=com.magicandroidapps.bettertermpro&feature=search_result
It's the best I've found so far and includes the bash shell with working tab complete, esc chars etc. Also includes a fully working ssh client.
Hi,
do you know some app terminal which can select text with characters shift+arrow?

As we know in ICS there's compatibility with many bluetooth keyboards, including Apple Wireless Keyboard.
So I have a little request:
1) How to remap function buttons for working as MENU / HOME / SEARCH and application shortcuts ?
2) Is it possible to make ALT (option) work as creator of non-english characters ?
3) Maybe it's possible to make shortcuts like CTRL or CMD +c / +v / +x ?
I'm sure I'm not the only one who want to use this keyboard with android phone or tablet
so THANK YOU very much in advice !

The Cmd/Tab combo works nicely. I wish there was a "home" key though.
Hey everyone,
This may be a bit of an off question as it applies to all android phones not ust the one s but here goes....
I just picked up an iHome Bluetooth Keyboard, designed for the ipad. Connected with ease to my one S and I am currently using it to type out this post. Works fantastic. No lag to speak of and the keys are really nice. One drawback, it is designed for Ipad lol. Sooooo the question here is whether or not it is possible to remap the keys on the keyboard to perform funtions on Android. I.e. map the function buttons to quicklaunch apps or to use the arrow keys to roll around the UI as I have not yet picked up a mouse. the arrow keys work in certain apps like the text message app or the browser. keyboard is a dream for emulation, takes me back to my early pc no gamepad emulation days lol. anyways, if anyone has some input on the subject i would love to hear it. Thanks in advance to your helpful replies. Love this community!!!

Hi,
I've managed to remap some hotkeys by opening up the terminal emulator (which you can download here) and inserting the string "am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.android.settings/.quicklaunch.QuickLaunchSettings" without quotes (thanks to norristh for this). This way you can map each search+letter shortcut and, IN MY KEYBOARD, hotkeys are nothing but a search+letter combination (I mean, if you change the search+letter behaviour you also change the hotkey behaviour).
The only hotkeys I haven't been able to get working are the apps key and the mute key (they aren't probably integrated natively in android).
Try it out!
i bought an ihome bluetooth wireless keyboard and i am unable to pair it with my inspire4g. i need some help please. i try to type ''0000'' and ''1234'' with no luck. what am i missing. it's a race to get this done because my girlfriend wants me to take it back, but i know it will work.

Hello
When I've tried out the 10.1 Note in landscape, it can feel like the height of the virtual keyboard is too large, i.e. the number row on top uses up vital screen space.
Is there a setting I've missed which removes the row of numbers, or another virtual keyboard that could be used (though without losing access to selecting pen input etc).
Thanks for any advice.
Shrink the keyboard
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Yes make a pinch gesture on the keyboard and select the floating keyboard. Its much smaller. If there is a way to shrink the full sized keyboard I would love to know.
If you switch to using the Hackers keyboard then you get extra keys like the delete key and you can adjust the hight of the keyboard and a lot more.

Thanks - I'll try out the Hackers k/b.
I've been trialling Swifkey 3 tablet - pity it doesn't have pen input selection (at the moment, I have to select the stock k/b for that).
Get SlideIT keyboard, its the most customizable keyboard I've tried. You can shrink it to any size.

I would like to be able to save a custom keyboard command, for example, CTRL + /, so that, for example, if I'm using Figma on my touch device (within the browser), I can hit this button and that keyboard shortcut will be "executed". In this instance, for Figma, it would toggle all of the UI and leave just the canvas.
Does such an app/widget exist?

The Figma app should support it, right?
Im not sure about anything else that can trigger UI elements.
Unfortunately I don't have access to the Figma app (it's in closed beta), I'm just trying to use it in the browser

Keyboard shortcuts for Figma
A visual cheat-sheet for the 119 keyboard shortcuts found in Figma
usethekeyboard.com
It has that.
If you have a physical keyboard it mught work.
Thanks Kenora, I'm trying to avoid having to connect physical keyboard .
I'm looking to use Figma in the browser on my Galaxy Tab. I can trigger the Toggle UI shortcut by pressing and holding on the background, but am hoping for a quicker way to trigger that function
