Can't rebind "C-/" (Ctrl + forward slash)

[adsick]

the config.toml seems valid, but pressing Ctrl + / does nothing, maybe I'm doing something wrong?

"C-/" = ["toggle_comments"]

[adsick]

Ctrl + c works as expected btw

I tried using wezterm which doesn't seem to have this key combination binded to anything and can reproduce.

This is a limitation of the terminal, try showkey -a and press Ctrl+/ and even Ctrl+7, they can't be differentiated and both produce this keycode:

$ showkey -a

Press any keys - Ctrl-D will terminate this program

^_ 	31 0037 0x1f
^_ 	31 0037 0x1f

Unless Helix support Kitty terminal's Keyboard handling protocol, there is nothing we can do to fix this.

If anybody else runs into this, ( I'm running into it on alacritty and gnome-terminal even after building of the latest master ( 68fce3e ), then you can workaround just by binding to C-7 instead of C-/. Not sure what's going on, but that makes Ctrl+/ work. 🤷‍♂️
