Summary

  • Configured foot scrollback to use Page_Up/Page_Down keys instead of Ctrl+Up/Down
  • Works with keyd which remaps Alt+[ and Alt+] to PgUp/PgDown system-wide
  • Note: keyd config (/etc/keyd/default.conf) is managed outside this repo

Test plan

  • Verify Alt+[ scrolls up and Alt+] scrolls down in foot
  • Verify scrollback works in both normal and alternate screen modes
  • Verify PgUp/PgDown work in other applications (e.g., Claude Code)

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

keyd remaps Alt+[ and Alt+] to PgUp/PgDown system-wide, so foot
needs to bind scrollback to the resulting Page_Up/Page_Down keys.
