Keyboard and mouse

Rakumux has two modes. In session mode every key goes to the program, except Ctrl-\, which switches to Rakumux mode. The keys below are Rakumux mode keys. From inside a session, put Ctrl-\ first: Ctrl-\ n is a new session, Ctrl-\ ? opens Help.

Mouse

• Click a session in the list to show it; click the session to work in it.
• Click a tab at the top of the list to group the list by it; click the active one to open its modal.
• Point at a session to show a star left of its name: click ☆ to pin it or the gold ★ to unpin it, without changing the selection.
• Drag a session up or down the list (or a tab left or right) to move it. A click without moving just selects it.
• Click ▸ under a session to show where it has worked; click a place to copy its path.
• Drag the line between the list and the session to resize the list, and the line left of the Feed to resize the Feed. « Hide list at the bottom of the list hides it; the » at the left edge brings it back.
• Click a card in the Feed to give it the keys and select it; click it again to read it whole.
• Click the mode in the centre of the footer: SESSION MODE switches to Rakumux mode, RAKUMUX MODE goes back to the session. The footer buttons do what they say, including f ≡ Feed and a Sign in while signed out. Phones send taps as clicks, so all of this works there too.
• The wheel scrolls the session’s history, or goes to the program when it uses the mouse itself.
• Hold Shift while dragging to select and copy text with your terminal.
