I'm currently working in WebStorm, but also use IDEA and RubyMine. I am using the embedded terminal and would like to get the Alt/Option key to be recognized as a the meta key, or at least send key+ESC.
Press Alt+Right and Alt+Left to switch between active tabs. Alternatively, you can press Alt+Down to see the list of all terminal tabs. To rename a tab, right-click the tab and select Rename Session from the context menu.
Opening a Terminal Window We can open the terminal window with ⌥F12 on macOS, or Alt+F12 on Windows and Linux. The terminal supports all the same commands that the operating system supports. and press enter.
Go to File -> Settings -> Tools -> Terminal and change Shell path based on the the installed git version.
For macOS users, put these in ~/.inputrc
for Bash:
"ƒ": forward-word
"∫": backward-word
"≥": yank-last-arg
"∂": kill-word
And other simple meta key bindings can be defined here. (Unless you use ƒ and ∫ more often.) Note this only works in local shells, not in remote SSH shells.
