i use ksh everywhere and the comman line is set to behave like vi so i can search/edit commands pretty fast.
on my freebsd5.4 i have installed pdksh-5.2.14p2 from packages. in the .profile EDITOR and VISUAL both exported as vi and after login i can see that: freebsd54$ set|grep vi EDITOR=vi VISUAL=vi if i switch to command mode strange things happen. like i press 'h' to go to the left and it just adds 'h's to the command line. but if i give it a export VISUAL=vi from the command line everything is ok. you guys know something about it? i have not found anything in google. thx bdz _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
