Even as a pretty die-hard vi/vim user, I still use "emacs" mode on the command line and then use fc or ^X^E (as LCD47 suggests) if I actually need to perform complex edits. I find this mirrors my vi/vim usage, where I want emacs-like commands when actually adding/entering things (Insert mode and command-line mode), but if I'm editing by making complex changes, I want the full power of vi/vim to do that. I can even use :r ~/.bash_history to read in the history of commands if I want to find/select/edit a past command. -tim -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
