Cylc tui, jump to the end of a file you are viewing

Hello,

Is there a short cut to jump to the end of a job file (e.g., job.out) or to search for a string?

The “Home” and “End” buttons on your keyboard should jump to the top / bottom of the file.

Tui doesn’t have a search functionality at present, the log viewer is very simple.

Thanks Oliver,

When pressing “home” and “end” within cylc tui, I only jump down one line:

cylctui_home_end

Hi,

You’re right, I was just testing with a very short log file!

I’m not sure why “end” doesn’t jump to the bottom. As a workaround, hitting the “page down” a few times will do it.

I’ve opened an issue to investigate: tui: end key doesn't jump to bottom of log view · Issue #6419 · cylc/cylc-flow · GitHub

I’ve got a solution that will make the home/end keys do what we would expect them to. Will hopefully arrive in 8.3.6
