[Not Reproducible] No support for end-of-line shortcut (ctrl + e) #482

Closed

Description

@nengqi

end-of-line (ctrl + e, on macOS) jumps the cursor to the end of the current line — pair with ctrl + a (beginning-of-line) for fast intra-line navigation. Standard emacs-mode readline binding, works in iTerm, Ghostty, Terminal.app, etc.

In Orca's terminal (v1.1.13), ctrl + e is intercepted/dropped and readline never sees it.

Same root cause as #443 / #453 (ctrl + r). Filing alongside ctrl + u — both suggest a systematic audit of the key-event filter would be more effective than whitelist-patching one shortcut at a time.

    Hi @nengqi, I was not able to reproduce this issue on macOS Tahoe on v1.1.13. ctrl + a and ctrl + a works normally for me. (video from my terminal https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/17d4a2bd-f084-41f3-801b-3d6e5ef2bcef)

    Can you share your system info? (e.g. OS version)

    Alternatively, you can also run Orca locally (just pnpm i && pnpm dev, very simple) and try to fix it and I'll merge your PR.
