hi jay, hmmm. then i'm stumped. it works great for me (debian testing). the only other help i can think of is my /etc/inputrc:
# /etc/inputrc - global inputrc for libreadline # See readline(3readline) and `info rluserman' for more information. # Be 8 bit clean. set input-meta on set output-meta on # set show-all-if-ambiguous on set bell-style visible set visible-stats on # To allow the use of 8bit-characters like the german umlauts, comment out # the line below. However this makes the meta key not work as a meta key, # which is annoying to those which don't need to type in 8-bit characters. # set convert-meta off $if term=xterm "\e[5;5~": history-search-backward "\e[6;5~": history-search-forward $endif "\e[C": forward-char "\e[D": backward-char "\e[A": previous-history "\e[B": next-history if it still doesn't work for you, then i'm stumped. readline is still somewhat of a black box for me. someday i'll get around to mastering it. sorry. :( pete On Fri 13 Jun 03, 5:05 PM, Jay Strauss <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: > No, I'm using bash, and debian stable > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Peter Jay Salzman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Friday, June 13, 2003 3:24 PM > Subject: Re: [vox-tech] readline questions (in bash) > > > > do you use wierd nonsense like csh or tcsh? > > > > or do you use bash? > > > > pete > > > > > > On Fri 13 Jun 03, 3:17 PM, Jay Strauss <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: > > > Doesn't work for me :( > > > > > > as soon as I sourced that .bash_bindings: > > > no arrow keys worked > > > home and end (still) don't work > > > <esc>k,j,l,x... don't work > > > vi search (/) doesn't work > > > > > > tried: set -o vi after running your script. didn't help > > > > > > Jay > > > > -- > > GPG Instructions: http://www.dirac.org/linux/gpg > > GPG Fingerprint: B9F1 6CF3 47C4 7CD8 D33E 70A9 A3B9 1945 67EA 951D > > _______________________________________________ > > vox-tech mailing list > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech > > > > > _______________________________________________ > vox-tech mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech -- GPG Instructions: http://www.dirac.org/linux/gpg GPG Fingerprint: B9F1 6CF3 47C4 7CD8 D33E 70A9 A3B9 1945 67EA 951D _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
