Description

Would it be possible as an option to have the cursor keys Up/down/left/right separate instead of the single directional button?

Why? It is too sensitive to my taste and is quite hard to get to the exact position. Individual clicks on “up” would make this much more controlled (but slower).

On phone this may be too much real estate, but on a pad it may be convenient.

Maybe even make it fully configurable allowing any key sequence above the main keyboard?

I am just comparing my usability experience of the ish terminal to that of WebSSH.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the iOS keyboard directional-control UI, then clarify whether the goal is optional separate arrow keys on iPad or a fully configurable key row; done should be a clearly defined interaction that can be checked on phone and iPad.
