Yes. I've been aware of this problem for a long time, and it is annoying, but I've always figured it was in the "You're going to have to live with it" category. There are quite a few things that are a little goofy about bash's vi mode; I've learned to live with them. Just out of curiosity, do you know if the same problem presents in emace mode? ================================================================================= Please do not send me replies to my posts on the list.
