This is because Home doesn't work like this in the shell. What you want would be <ctrl>a.

here some my shorcuts:
"Escape colon w,q KP_Enter" (when u are in VI this command write the file and quit VI)
"Escape colon q exclam KP_Enter" (when u are in VI this command quit VI whitout saving the file)
"<ctrl>c" (this command stop the current executing shell command).

I know it is just a typo, but "color" should also be "colon" in your quit vi without saving macro.

BTW, there is a rarely documented shortcut for ":wq" in vi. You can just use ":x".

Here are some toolbar shortcuts I find useful on a daily basis:

| (pipe) = bar
^] (escape character) = <ctrl>,braceright
> (redirect stdout) = greater

was playing around with this to ease some apt abuse and i found that rootsh dont like to be used this way. all i get is "file or dir not found".

could be that my hyphen is wrong tho as it does not match the one in the wiki. it seems to require lower case...

it seems indeed like the hyphen is at fault. it looks right, but isnt soo apparently...

ah, minus, not hyphen

now i have my most common apt-get commands as shortcuts

it's easy
say you want to execute vi command, then type this shortcut:
"v,i,KP_Enter"

Is anybody knows how to automatically execute command when starting xterm? I mean, when I start Xterm or new Xterm tab, can I get "sudo gainroot" command automatically executed without my intervention?

TIA.

I would settle for learning how to paste copied text into x-terminal

if you are using an n900 just use the vkb and select the paste option when you have the input box open
