While SSH-ing to a Linux workstation using the Secure Shell Chrome extension from my Chromebook, most of Byobu's keyboard shortcuts work fine (using tmux underneath). One notable exception is Alt+Up/Down for switching between sessions(*), which are interpreted as simple Up/Down key presses and scroll through my bash command history.
How can I have access to switching between sessions on this environment?
Ideally there's some extension settings combination that would fix this, but I couldn't find the right incantation myself (I'm not an expert by any means). But maybe there are other ways or workarounds, like creating new Byobu shortcuts or using alternative Ctrl-a-based shortcuts?.
In case that helps, these are the sequences I get using read -n 1 from the Secure Shell extension:
- Alt+Up:
^[[5~ - Alt+Down:
^[[6~
And from a local terminal on the workstation:
- Alt+Up:
^[[1;3A - Alt+Down:
^[[1;3B
(*): Curiously, Shift+Up/Down and Alt+Left/Right work just fine. There are other shortcuts that do not work either, but I'm less bothered by them, like F4-based ones (used by the OS for maximize/restore of windows) or Alt+F11.
