A contributed configuration

Thanks to Evgeny for an excellent terminal!

It took me a while to settle on this profile which I think is close to what has become a 'standard' (if there is such a thing) in the terminal world. Posting here in the hope that it is useful to others.

Features include:

• Ctrl-plus/minus/0 etc for dynamic font size adjustment
• Shift-insert to insert PRIMARY selection (ie whatever you just selected with the mouse) Requires xvkdb or xdotool
• Ctrl-Shift-c/v for copy/paste CLIPBOARD selection
• Clicking on a URL can either just copy the URL to the CLIPBOARD, open it in your browser or popup a menu to select
• Ctrl-f1 etc to select the nth tab
• Ctrl-tab to select the next tab; CtrlShift-tab for the previous
• Ctrl-g / f to toggle on/off the tab bar and the menu bar
