In the review buffer: Alt+Up, Alt+Down, Alt+PageUp, Alt+PageDown and Alt+End, as above.

Every key can be changed in the preferences. The keys for the command line only act at the shell’s prompt, so Alt+M still reaches emacs and Shift+Enter is just Enter in python.

Tab goes through the choices, as zsh does: when several things match, the first Tab puts in the first one, each Tab after it the next, and Shift+Tab goes back. Each choice is said whole. Set editing.tabCompletion to "shell" for bash’s usual listing instead.
