Command Shortcuts

By default, ttIsql supports keystroke shortcuts when entering commands.

The ttIsql keystroke shortcuts are:

Keystroke	Action
Left Arrow	Moves the insertion point left (back).
Right Arrow	Moves the insertion point right (forward).
Up Arrow	Scroll to the command before the one being displayed. Places the cursor at the end of the line. If the command being added to the history is identical to the most recently added command, it is skipped.
Down Arrow	Scrolls to a more recent command history item and puts the cursor at the end of the line. If the command being added to the history is identical to the most recently added command, it is skipped.
Ctrl-A	Moves the insertion point to the beginning of the line.
Ctrl-E	Moves the insertion point to the end of the line.
Ctrl-K	"Kill" - Saves and erases the characters on the command line from the current position to the end of the line.
Ctrl-Y	"Yank"- Restores the characters previously saved and inserts them at the current insertion point.
Ctrl-F	Forward character - move forward one character. (See Right Arrow.)
Ctrl-B	Backward character - moved back one character. (See Left Arrow.)
Ctrl-P	Previous history. (See Up Arrow.)
Ctrl-N	Next history. (See Down Arrow.)
