My current setup:

~/.bashrc

  stty intr \^x
  bind -f ~/.inputrc

~/.inputrc

set bind-tty-special-chars off

set colored-stats on
set show-all-if-ambiguous on
set show-all-if-unmodified on
set completion-ignore-case on
set completion-query-items -1
set page-completions off

"\e[1;5C": forward-word
"\e[1;5D": backward-word
"\C-h": nop
"\C-s":"\C-asudo "

And in Konsole I have remapped copy to ctrl+C and paste to ctrl+V .

I honestly don't remember what each config line is for, cause it has been so long ago. And probably you don't want all of that. Probably best to throw it into an AI and let it explain it line by line.

Thanks! I'm using konsole too, so that's good to know. Do you remap something else to produce the ctrl-c character?

No, I press ctrl + c on my keyboard and in Konsole settings it is ctrl + c for copy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
