You said this is in the linux console itself. I use the slightly longer version of inputrc in chapter 7 of the book, but you only seem to be missing the entries for xterm and konsole, and I don't notice any errors in your values. Are you, perhaps, still using something linked to /tools ? If not, I see that in both .bashrc and .bash_profile I have lines to export INPUTRC=/etc/inputrc if that files exists (my own setup is carried forward from whatever worked when I first started using BLFS). In the current BLFS book that is now handled in /etc/profile.d/readline.sh - see Chapter 3, "The Bash Shell Startup Files". ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
