put this in your $HOME/.inputrc: set editing-mode vi set keymap vi Or, if your a real vidiot, put it in /etc/inputrc - the global inputrc for libreadline. See readline(3readline) and `info readline' for more information. Cheers, Joost -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
