Directory history, but you figured it later I see.

I fully got now what you are proposing. This actually introduces a problem
with other program which might act on alt-f or alt-b. Also, in irssi for
example the alt-left/right are important key combos, and this way they get
lost this way.
So, why is this not working then:
keycode 105 = Left
alt keycode 105 = Meta_Left
keycode 106 = Right
alt keycode 106 = Meta_Right
What I'm trying to do is bind alt-left to, surprise, alt-left, and the same
with alt-right in the console. If that worked I wouldnt have the need of
changing binds in fish.
