Ahhh, I was assuming this was an ~/.inputrc setting all the time, that was the source of our misunderstanding. Since the user will want it on for some apps and off for others, I guess this is not globally customizable. I know rl can be customized per app, but finding the right app identifier was always a black art for me. I'm not even sure whether this is always possible or requires the app to register itself with rl (with the implication that many apps may be not currently doing this). Another possibility is to set an environment variable and then call the app with the right environment. _______________________________________________ Bug-readline mailing list Bug-readline@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-readline
