Numpad/Keypad

[ghe0]

Did you try remapping the keypad/numpad keys in nvim? They should map to kUp dDown kPageUp and so on, but they map to Up Down PageUp instead. Konsole is blocking the correct numpad keys from propagating.

The only solution I found was to switch to the kitty terminal

I don't use numpad keys usually, . but I just did a quick check, and numpad keys works like the normal keys (up, down, pagedown, pageup, etc). I think that is the indented behaviour... because they are the same keys ?

Nope. They should be interpreted as different keys. To test this:

• start neovim
• enter insert mode
• press CTRL+V
• press Page Up

If you press the normal page up, you should see <PageUp>. If you press the numap page up, you should see <kPageUp>.

For me, this has different behaviours in Konsole and in the Kitty terminal. Normally, you should be able to map the keys differently in nvim/

Umm.... Strange. nvim-qt does exactly the same thing . There isn't

Whe using ~/.config/nvim/init.lua, this can be used to test:

vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<kRight>', '<C-W>l', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<kLeft>', '<C-W>h', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<kDown>', '<C-W>j', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<kUp>', '<C-W>k', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<S-kRight>', '<C-W>L', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<S-kLeft>', '<C-W>H', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<S-kUp>', '<C-W>K', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<S-kDown>', '<C-W>J', { noremap = true, silent = true })

This allows you to navigate between splits and to reposition splits on the screen with the arrow keys on the numpad and using shift+arrow. However it will work only if nvim correctly recognizes the numpad, so it does not work for me in Konsole.

Umm... I have a try to kitty , only to see this problem. Even with kitty on my system, I don't get any ... So I think that isn't only the shell doing something here :
