What & Why

Using binding keys to input some commands or just a string to terminal. It's very useful for common commands and complex commands.

Type 'ctrl+1' to actually input a common command like 'ps -ef | grep server | grep -v grep'
It also can use to send command to all opened tab.

How

By using setting keys binding. we can set a new command action like 'input', we can bind it to keys like 'ctrl+0~ctrl+9' or any other keys.
for example.

{
	"command":{"action":"input", "argument":"my common command 1"},
	"keys":["ctrl+1"]
}
