# QCode's own keys, layered over the framework's built-in keymap.
#
# Esc leaves the screen that is open. It reaches the application only when nothing nearer has
# used it: a focused widget first — the terminal of a harness tab keeps its own Esc — then an
# open dialog, which closes instead. Leaving the application is `ctrl+q` and stays that way, so
# Esc on the home screen does nothing.

# A blank tab on the project screen, the way a browser opens one. A focused terminal keeps the
# key for the program inside it.
= "ctrl+t"
# From a harness back to QCode: the keyboard moves to the tab strip, where the arrows switch tabs,
# Enter or Down goes into the tab shown and Tab walks on. Terminals do not report a lone ctrl+alt tap without losing AltGr characters
# such as `@` on a Turkish keyboard; this is the nearest chord every terminal sends as it is.
= "ctrl+alt+space"
# Names the open tab. A focused terminal lets it through, as it does the key list's F1: a key
# that types nothing is QCode's own.
= "f2"
# Straight to another tab, with the keyboard landing in it, from anywhere on the project screen and
# from inside a harness, whose terminal lets these through. Ctrl+PgUp and Ctrl+PgDn are what
# browsers and editors switch tabs with, every terminal sends them as they are, and none of the
# harnesses QCode runs (Claude Code, opencode, Codex) gives them a meaning. Alt with a digit is the
# same in every terminal too, and the harnesses leave the digits to typing; a terminal that has
# tabs of its own takes these keys only while it shows more than one.

# The list of every key. `?` is the framework's own key for it; F1 is the key help has
# everywhere else, and it still works while a text field has the keyboard and takes `?` as text.
# A harness tab's terminal keeps `?` for the program inside it, since it is typed text, and lets
# F1 through, as it does the side panel's key. The sign-in terminal on the profiles screen takes
# both; there the hint in the corner is clicked, or `shift+tab` leaves the terminal first.
