I was looking at help:history and then eventually help:emacs-keys <C-P> works, but depending on where your Control key is I don't know if that is easier than the arrows or not. It's funny because I instantly thought of a `set -o vi' type of thing but that would present all types of problems within Vim. So you can use emacs keybindings on the commandline in Vim, and vi keybindings on the command line in your terminal. Your fingers won't know what's what! ;) -Joe --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
