Don't know why PgUp and PgDn don't work for you but you could try
KP_Prior or KP_Page_Up
KP_Next or KP_Page_Down

No, I tried those. All these just write a '~' on the screen for me... The only one that works is KP_Enter.

With 'sudo gainroot' the above work. But how to make it work for the normal user?

Thanks,

I think they actually do work and just don't do what you expect.

You probably want <ctrl>a for "home" and <ctrl>e for "end" in a terminal that doesn't understand home/end
(ctrl-e actually only works as a shortcut, if I type it on the keyboard, that is a global shortcut for search).

If they work as root, I suppose that uses a different type of shell for you?

I like the toolbar shortcuts. But I have problem in doing the special characters like
/ (slash)
\
& (KP_amber, it is a guess)
. (period)
| (bar)

Does anybody know or where can I look up for more? TIA,

Edit: found some of them in this thread.

Hey,

http://inz.fi/blog/2007/01/24/more-o...erm-shortcuts/ is a good page to look at (albeit the file mentioned is very long!).

& is "ampersand" (without the quotes). I found it by looking in that file on that page and removing the "GDK_".

HTH

Thanks qwerty12, you are always fast. Just one thing pop into my mind, you are so good in searching, which does require to know the subject WELL in order to put in a good search, you really would be a good competitor to Google if you want challenge. Just a thought, and a big thank you for finding this. And it is good to see your new avatar too :-)
