full keyboard controls when running ubuntu shell in chromeos tab

182 Views Asked by At

when running ubuntu cli in a tab (a chrome tab in chrome os) using crouton, i can't press control w to search in the nano text editor. It triggers the close window command instead for chrome. How can I disable this? With a GUI installed for Ubuntu, I can run the program full screen and get total keyboard command capture. Is this impossible when running in a Chrome tab? Is there any way to get the cli out of the chrome tab?
