Hotkey Reference
================
This reference covers the keys used to control **lnav**. Consult the `built-in
help <https://github.com/tstack/lnav/blob/master/src/help.txt>`_ in **lnav** for
a more detailed explanation of each key.
Global
------
.. list-table::
:header-rows: 1
:widths: 6 20
* - Keypress
- Command
* - :kbd:`Ctrl` + :kbd:`C`
- If the focused line is from a file connected to an open pipe (the "↻"
icon will be next to the file name), a SIGINT will be sent to the
child process. Otherwise, **lnav** will quickly exit. If **lnav**
seems to be stuck in a loop, pressing :kbd:`Ctrl` + :kbd:`C` three
times will trigger an abort exit.
Spatial Navigation
------------------
The majority of these hotkeys should be available in all views.
