I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with Unity right now. I've changed my copy and paste keys to Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V respectively.

The command I've used is this:

gconftool-2 -t str -s /apps/gnome-terminal/keybindings/copy "<Control>c"

Now I'm looking for a way to change the interrupt / kill process key from Ctrl + C to (for example) Ctrl + I. The problem is that I can't find the appropriate keybinding name for it.

Any help would be appreciated.

The key combo was changed to Ctrl + Alt + C by default.

Also Alt + F4 is will kill the foreground task (same as clicking the cross).

To change the interrupt key to ctrl + I

stty intr ^i

Just change the "i" to any other letter you want and to see all terminal shortcuts you can run

stty -a

There is a very good answer explaining this here, ignore the title and read the first answer.
