| `ctrl+a` | cursorLineStart |

| `shift+enter` | newLine |

| `backspace` | deleteCharBackward |

## Safe Keys for Extensions
These `ctrl+letter` combos are **free** and work in all terminals:
| Key | Notes |
|-----|-------|
| `ctrl+x` | Safe |
| `ctrl+q` | May be intercepted by terminal (XON/XOFF flow control) |
| `ctrl+h` | Alias for backspace in some terminals — use with caution |
## macOS Notes
- `alt+letter` combos type special characters in most macOS terminals — they don't send alt sequences
- `ctrl+shift+letter` requires Kitty keyboard protocol (Kitty, Ghostty, WezTerm)
- `ctrl+alt+letter` works in legacy terminals but may conflict with macOS system shortcuts
- **Safest bet on macOS:** stick to `ctrl+letter` combos from the free list above, or use `f1``f12`
