I love shortcut keys! Maybe you do too. I often use the terminal in Ubuntu for my work, and I often use vim to write scripts. I’m using Nautilus terminal in Ubuntu. To easily access the terminal I put it on the quick launch bar. But that’s not enough. I then found that you can make a custom shortcut key to open your terminal in Ubuntu.
The default shortcut key to open a terminal in Ubuntu is Ctrl + Alt + T. But on the keyboard layout it’s hard to press all the keys with one hand. I prefer Ctrl + Shift + 1 because it’s easy to press with one hand. To change the shortcut key in Ubuntu you can go to Menu -> System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts.
Then scroll down until you find “Run a Terminal” and change it to Ctrl + Shift + 1 or any combination you like.
Do you like shortcut keys too? Tell me your opinion below.
