I'm using reflection x-window to connect to a linux server.
I have problem with copy+paste from my computer (windows xp) to the
reflection xterm. it does not work.
The other way around works: from xterm to windows.
any one know how to solve this?
Thanks
Try pasting into xterm with Ctrl+Shift+v instead of Ctrl+v ?
Use the middle scroll button on your mouse.

My RStudio keyboard shortcuts of Command+Enter and Option+Enter cannot work, after upgrading RStudio Version 1.0.136 on my Mac BookPro notebook. Any one can help me? Many thanks.
Best,
Gary
You can try to rebind them to something different as a semi-solution. However, why the shortcuts don't work I couldn't tell you.
Go to Tools -> Modify keyboard shortcuts and in the search field type run. You will see the Run current line or selection and the bindings behind it. If they are empty then we have an immediate answer to your problem. If not, you can bind it to something different.
I was using ctrl + - to make the code font smaller (or zooming out) in the R studio source editor and I got the pop up window (picture attached).
I think I pressed OK by mistake and I lost a huge chunk of code. How can I recover that?
Also. it makes me bit skeptical of using Rstudio. Pop out message
ctrl + z is the undo command (Windows)

From a beginner standpoint, I find rstudio to be one of the most user friendly dedicated IDE's available for any programming language.
If you are on Windows, a JSON file with your code is available at
C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\RStudio-Desktop\sources

This is a terrible bug that RStudio has. I have never seen a code editor that every time you change the zoom level you lose your code! It is a terrible issue that makes me wonder if I should go back to Notepad++. I have never lost a file using Notepad++.
Updated: This issue has been solved in RStudio 1.2.1335 "Allow changing zoom level without reloading (#2125)".
In this case I immediately press ctrl + z. If this is not recovering your code try with history tab -> go to history tab:
Use ctrl with + on the right keyboard, don't use key.
may the shortcut of Zoom Source Editor with Ctrl+Shift+1 is a substitute plan.
It’s a pity that Rstudio doesn't provides a support to ctrl + +/-(mouse scroll)
We have a script that always runs in a terminal window. Sometimes users will do stuff in other windows and our script terminal gets moved behind all these other windows, and they forget to bring it back to the front. Is there a way to force it so it is always on top or front? Sort of like how annoying popup windows work? We are on solaris 8
There is a way indeed! Check out a tool called xdotool. It does exactly what you need and more.
Here is the link to the download: http://www.semicomplete.com/projects/xdotool/#idp20144
and here is the link to the documentation: http://www.semicomplete.com/projects/xdotool/xdotool.xhtml
I suggest you look into the Window commands, especially: windowactivate
I can give you the exact command if you like to save time? Or you can browse through the documentation. Hope this helps!
this is driving me crazy. Everytime I click on the terminal, I get text output but the click does not happen. I can't select anything, scroll on the terminal or perform any mouse operations.
For example, if I click I get things like "TB#TB", which is "TB" when I click and "#TB" when I release the click. If I scroll I get 'UC'` for every scroll of the wheel. Total rubbish.
I'm using cygwin to connect to a redhat machine and it happens only for this one machine. If I connect to a different one, also running redhat, it doesn't happen, so I think the issue is on the remote machine's side. It's also independent of what shell I'm using.
Any ideas?
EDIT: I discovered that pressing shift returns all the usual mouse functionality. I wonder why.
This is more like a "come down to your machine and solve problem"
You must have save default setting for that particular machine to direct it to shift option. As you said shift solves the problem.
You should reset the settings.

When working in Unix with various programming languages I often use Kate as my primary editor.
It has a really nice function of being able to open a built-in terminal window which is quite useful.
The problem is that switching back and forth to the terminal view using a mouse is quite a pain and I can't find any shortcuts for this. The only shortcut I could find is for closing the entire terminal (not just changing the focus). This is a bit annoying as it causes the text in the terminal window to get truncated (I think it's a known Kate bug).
Does anyone know a better shortcut?
Note that the Kate bug has been fixed. The correct answer to this question is now F4.
There's a "Focus Terminal" shortcut in the "Configure shortcuts"
There you can set it up. F4 didn't work by default in my case and Shift+Tab worked only in one direction.
this is a bug in kate. possible workarounds: a) shift back by pressing Shift+Tab, b) try another shortcut (some do work). see also Bug 157496: Alt+[Key] shortcuts for menu items do not work.
Today (Kate v 22.08.2), it's
Settings > Configure Keyboard Shortcuts > Type "terminal" in Search box >
edit shortcut for "Focus Terminal Panel".
For me, the default was Ctrl+Shift+ F4, while F4 hid the terminal.
I swapped them because it's more convenient for me.
The focus shift is only visible by appearance of the cursor changing slightly.
