Let's say I enter the following keystrokes:
1 + 1 RET M-p C-a
This adds 1+1, gets the result, then runs comint-previous-input and reenters the
previous command. C-a moves to the start of the line ... but puts the point
before the prompt, where the | is below.
# ———
1+1
[1] 2
|> 1 + 1
# ———
Is there a way to go to the start of the command, not the line? I'm often in a
situation where I get something working and then want to assign it to a
variable, and it would be nice to run M-p C-a and be able to type "foo <-" with
everything in place. (Thereby saving me all the trouble of hitting the right
arrow twice, which I know is trivial, but this is Emacs so I bet someeone has
got this working, unless I missed it in the docs.)
Thanks,
Bill
