Actually I would be very interested in > working Shift-Ctrl key combos. I'm not sure when and where I've had that working or I may be misremembering another combination. In any case, in konsole Ctrl-Shift-. is a Hotkey and can be mapped to Ctrl-:, so whatever application uses the terminal never gets to see that combo anyway. Similarly in GNOME a lot of the Ctrl-Shift plane is taken up by standard shortcuts (which you will have to disable first). In any case, to make it work you'd need to switch the terminal mode so that it communicates the modifier keys out-of-band (as CSI escape sequences AFAIK) to the application. There's no way to have it in normal mode and be able to send Ctrl-Shift anything since there simply aren't any codings for this. In XTerm this can be controlled via the modifyKeys resource IIRC. There are other modes like the old X10 terminal mode that synthesize key events, too. > You are able to type C-: in an emacs running in a terminal emulator? Right now, no. I haven't configured this in years and thankfully it has been even longer I've had to program through an actual serial line (at 1200baud Emacs isn't going to work well and you're very thankful for a vi, BTW).
