Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
The Z key in Dvorak layout is the same key as "- / _" in German layout.
So Gnome-terminal does not take the translated (according to the user's
layout) keys for determining its shortcuts, but it uses some more low-
level notion, wrongly.
The effect is that I can't press Ctrl-Z in the terminal to freeze a
program, because that triggers the zoom-window function.
By the way, it's interesting that the Ctrl-- (i.e. the shortcut pressed
with the Dvorak - ) ALSO shrinks the terminal window; the Dvorak Ctrl-+
also works.
So probably it's only one shortcut too much. With German layout, the
"+ / *" is on the same key as "= / +" in Dvorak, so naturally, I don't
see a difference there.
This is Gnome-terminal 2.16.1 on Ubuntu 6.10, fully updated as of Feb
22nd, '07.
