This page lists every key the TUI binds. Inside the TUI, the footer shows the
keys that work where you are, and ? lists the keys for the current tab.
Global
These work on every tab and on the Related view. Inside the describe,
troubleshoot and logs views, and while a dialog, a prompt or the palette is open,
only that view’s own keys work.

Logs view
L opens the logs view: the log of this rl tui session, colored by level. It
opens at the newest line and follows new lines as they arrive. Scrolling up
stops following, and G starts it again. The TUI also writes this log to
tui.log in your data directory, and the view’s header shows that path.
The logs view’s filter takes the same kind of terms as the table filter. A
field:value term matches level, msg, or any other field a log line carries,
for example level:error or msg:timeout.
