Keyboard shortcuts

Every Loom shortcut lives in the Ctrl+Shift namespace (Cmd+Shift on macOS). The modifiers are fixed on purpose — so ordinary terminal keys (Ctrl+C for SIGINT, arrows, function keys, your tmux/vim bindings) pass straight through to the program in the pane. Only the final key of each binding is rebindable, in Settings → Keys.

Press Ctrl+Shift+? any time for the in-app cheat sheet.
