Ah! So you're running BASH on z/OS UNIX and still getting the differences? I have Bash 2.03 on my z/OS 1.10 system. The "up arrow" key works fine on my telnet emulator. I run Hummingbird under Windows XP. The tab also does file completion. I got it from: http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zseries/zos/unix/bpxa1ty1.html I also used the telnet client that is on my Linux/Intel box. It also works, but not quite properly. It "works" but does not display properly. I.e. I type in "ls -l x4" and get a good display. I press "up arrow" and ^[[A displays. I then press enter and get the response from the previous command. IOW - the "up arrow" using this client does not redisplay the actual command line that it fetched into the buffer.
