hi all,
in bash, i'd like to map the uparrow key to "escape uparrow". the trouble is
that there doesn't seem to be a way to make readline avoid the infinite

why? because i like using vi style editing in bash
on some cd's i get a "no preemp" error from cdrecord.
what does this error mean?
what can i do about it?
