*>Can someone explain the following. The file /etc/inputrc certainly has the 'wrong'
lines in it, but I am loathe to delete them without understanding what I am doing.
(mmm, I wonder where I screwed up..)
It Pays to read the documentations kids.

9) When I run CPAN's shell, I get error msg about line 1 to 4,
Some versions of readline are picky about
capitalization in the /etc/inputrc file and
specifically RedHat 6.2 comes with a /etc/inputrc that
contains the word on in lowercase. Change the
occurrences of on to On and the bug should disappear.
If you don't have perldoc for some unknown reason use
