Mr. Wooledge,
Long before I realized I could put /home/mike on a separate

called it /mc. A couple of tomes I had different OS versions on the

In response to Greg Wooledge's message of Wed, 27 Dec.
As it turns out every line in /mc/bin/xterm_bindings that
was not a comment was problematic.From man readline or info readline
I saw this: bind '"\C-x\C-r": re-read-init-file' and that is the syntax

You guys were rigt all along, I just couldn't see it.
Greg's suggestion to try dash showed me the error of my ways.

Do xterm and lxterminal behave in a similar way? Is there something
related to xterm *VT100*translations in the output of

For the record, $SHELL does not tell you what shell you're currently in.
It tells you which login shell your account uses, or which shell
you'd *like* to use when you launch a new xterm

OK, you've examined them... and... what did you *see* in them?
When did this problem start to happen,
This is reported by "xev" in response to the "'" key:
