ctrl-backspace doesn't work in tmux #11538Description
It seems ctrl-backspace doesn't work when fish is launched inside tmux, but works without it. Also, for the same terminal tmux + bash works fine.
ctrl-backspacein tmux + fish:
❯ fish_key_reader -c
To terminate this program type "exit" or "quit" in this window,
or press ctrl-c or ctrl-d twice in a row.
Press a key:
bind ctrl-h 'do something'
ctrl-backspacein fish:
❯ fish_key_reader -c
To terminate this program type "exit" or "quit" in this window,
or press ctrl-c or ctrl-d twice in a row.
Press a key:
bind ctrl-backspace 'do something'
❯ fish --version
fish, version 4.0.1
❯ apt show tmux
Version: 3.5a-3
I know that I can assign ctrl-h in fish config to backward-kill-word and this is what I did, but just in case maybe this can be fixed permanently in fish? The workaround:
bind ctrl-h backward-kill-word
