๐ก Quick handy tip
You can prevent entering characters accidentally on a running GNOME terminal session by making it read-only.
To do this, click on the top-right hamburger menu and check the option called “Read-Only”.
It can also be done by right-clicking on a terminal window and selecting “Read-Only”
Revert the same process to resume input of characters.
