Re: [Fish-users] How to bind a key sequence to another key sequence?

[Shiyao Ma]

Hi,

On my terminal, ctrl+enter generates a seq of "^[[27;5;13~"
I'd like to bind it to a plain "enter".  So pressing ctrl+enter is the same as 
pressing a mere "enter".

I tried
bind \e"[27;5;13~" \r

but with no success.

What you want to do is run `bind \r` which will tell you it is bound to
`execute`. So just `bind \e"[27;5;13~" execute`.

At this time there is no way to write "bind this sequence to the same
commands as this other sequence". It is not clear such a feature would be
useful and unambiguous; e.g., how do you deal with cycles? But if you can
define a sensible syntax and behavior for it please open an issue at

I do not understand the question. You can bind a key sequence to any
sequence of commands, not just a function. It doesn't make sense to execute
`bind abc ab` where the final `ab` in that command refers to the character
sequence in `bind ab some_function`.
