i don't want to learn a new style in order to get further confused...

the only other option i'm left is to run the commands from the command line
and use mapping for the command line like :cmap etc. but that is just a work around and not a proper alternative as it doesn't behave exactly like the
command line output...

thanks...

and in general what is the best shell with text editing capabilities that
resembles vim the most, but more importantly i want it to be dinmically
modifiable like vim, ֠_not_ like the fixed option of set -o vi command in
bash which set a _static_ and fixed set of key bindings.

Not sure what you mean by "static" here. The GNU readline bindings are completely configurable. set -o vi sets up a few mappings to give vi-like behavior, but there are a lot of useful functions that are not mapped at all by default. You can set up vi mode-specific bindings in your .inputrc file. For details...

man bash

...and read the section READLINE (with all its sub-sections).
