stty modes are relevant when you're entering text in the tty's canonical input mode, where there are only a few controls (erase, werase, kill). tcsh has its own command line editor with its own configuration command (bindkey). There's a vi-like mode and an emacs-like mode, and tons of individual functions that can be bound to the keys of your choosing. In emacs mode (bindkey -e), the initial action bound to ^W is "kill-region". If you run bindkey -l, you get a list of actions and descriptions in which kill-region is described as "Cut area between mark and cursor and save in cut buffer". I guess you have to be an emacs user to make sense of that. In vi mode (bindkey -v), the initial action bound to ^W is "backward-delete-word", which is much closer to the werase you were looking for. So you should probably either use vi mode, or at least run "bindkey ^w backward-delete-word" -- Alan Curry -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
