Linux – How to run the terminal using keyboard shortcuts in Gnome 2

gnomekeyboard shortcutslinux

I'm using Gnome 2. I use the terminal several times, and I lose a lot of time going in Applications / Utilities / Terminal to launch the terminal. I am wondering if I can launch the terminal using keyboard shortcuts. I would like to do something similar to CTRL+T.

You should go to Settings / Keyboard / Shortcuts and find the tab labeled shortcuts, then add new shortcut, name your shortcut Launch New Terminal and add the command

gnome-terminal &

After the shortcut is added, highlight the newly-minted custom shortcut and press the unique key combination of your choice.

I personally use: Ctrl+Alt+T
