> I just have to ask whether this would change current behavior in the
command line. That is, would anything change for someone who didn't bind
any metakeys, or didn't even really know what it was all about and was
afraid of things like Emacs?
The current patch doesn't bind them, though I think it should. If they
were bound by default (to whatever Magma uses) then they would be more
discoverable, and I think the only difference (beyond perhaps a minuscule
performance penalty) would be `Ctl-o`, which I think isn't used for
anything right now. It would be good to have it confirmed that `Ctl-n`
and `Ctl-p` are backwards compatible and `Ctl-o` is unused.
I skimmed the code and documentation and I noticed that on line 245
unbounded should be unbound. Sadly, I don't know Cython well enough to
feel comfortable reviewing it, though I can say it has been working fine
for me (after I got my issues sorted out). I think it would be nice to
add a sentence to the documentation about `stty -iexten` etc.
