True, though that would've been taken care of by the "Windows-level problems" above (wrong name, I know). > > Does 'bind -p | grep "B"' show anything for 'B'? > > > > Check your .inputrc for any bindings for "B"; then .bashrc and > > /etc/profile, for any "bind" commands. Now, interestingly enough, a lone 'B' in .inputrc doesn't produce any key binding that could be found in the "bind" output (with all the flags I tried). How would I figure out that 'B' is bound to "nothing", but bound nonetheless[*]? Igor P.S.
