By default, ConnectBot is set to use <strong>Portrait</strong> +mode when no hardware keyboard is present. To change this setting, go to +<strong>Preferences</strong> from the <strong>Host List</strong>.</p> +<p>In <strong>Landscape</strong> mode, the Android virtual keyboard +(or other IMEs) will take up the entire screen. Android provides no way +for ConnectBot to resize the terminal view in <strong>Landscape</strong>. +However, you may use a <i>work-around</i>: <strong>Force Resize</strong> +to fit above the virtual keyboard if desired.</p> +<p>On devices without a hardware keyboard, you may press and hold +the <strong>MENU</strong> button to bring up the virtual keyboard. NOTE: +This applies to any program on the Android platform; it is not +ConnectBot specific.</p> +<h2>How to Enter Control, Alt, Escape, and Function Keys</h2> +<p>You can enter any key combination with ConnectBot and the virtual +keyboard, but you must know how keys are mapped on a normal console. For +instance, usually combinations of ALT+letter on a PC keyboard are +actually mapped to sending, sequentially, ESC key then the letter.</p> +<p>Note there are also screen gestures: see the ScreenGestures help topic.</a> +for <strong>Page Up</strong> and <strong>Page Down</strong>.</p> +<ul> + <li>Trackball: 1 press is <strong>CTRL</strong>, 2 presses sends <strong>ESC</strong> + </li> + <li><strong>Tab key</strong> = <strong>CTRL + i</strong></li> + <li><strong>Function key</strong> = <strong>CTRL + number</strong> + </li> +</ul> +<h2>Examples</h2> +<ul> + <li><strong>ESC</strong> = Press the trackball twice.</li> + <li><strong>ALT + Right Arrow</strong> = Press trackball twice + then move trackball to right.</li> + <li><strong>CTRL + A</strong> = Press trackball once then tap the + "A" key on the soft keyboard.</li> + <li><strong>F3</strong> = Press trackball once then tap the + "3" key on the soft keyboard.</li> +</ul> + +</body> +</html> |
