Bash Shell Keyboard Shortcuts
The Only Ubuntu weblog has posted a very thorough list of keyboard shortcuts for the Bash shell (terminal). This is by far the most complete list of keyboard shortcuts for the Bash shell that I’ve come across. Below is just a preview, give the Only Ubuntu weblog a look to see the complete rundown.
Ctrl + A - Go to the beginning of the line you are currently typing on
Ctrl + E - Go to the end of the line you are currently typing on
Ctrl + L - Clears the Screen, similar to the clear command
Ctrl + U - Clears the line before the cursor position. If you are at the end of the line, clears the entire line.
Ctrl + H - Same as backspace
Ctrl + R - Let’s you search through previously used commands
Ctrl + C - Kill whatever you are running
Ctrl + D - Exit the current shell
