Package: bash
Version: 4.4-5
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
I use vi a great deal and so press escape a great deal. (often when I
shouldn't) If I plan to run vi again I then type v. The results are not
pleasing. I have been known to say bad words.
I never use the "edit-and-execute" feature, and would prefer that
<escape>v ignore the escape, place a v where appropriate, and leave readline in
input mode. If that is too much, if it would just leave readline in input mode
would be bette than now.
I set EDITOR=false as a workaround, but that breaks reportbug among
other things.
Thanks,
Jim
