## Changing shortcuts

- In **Settings → Keyboard**, click a shortcut and press the new keys.
  **Reset** restores the default. Muxy refuses keys that are already taken.
- Changes are saved to `settings.toml` under `[keymap]`, for example
  `split_right = "cmd-alt-d"`.
- Terminal keys such as clear screen, line editing, and scrolling have built-in
  bindings. Add your own in **Settings → Terminal → Key bindings**; they take
  precedence while a terminal is focused.
- Commands from **Settings → Commands** and extensions can have shortcuts too.
- The Quick Terminal shortcut is set in **Settings → Quick Terminal**.
