When connecting to z/OS (USS) using ssh, I'd like the USS shell to handle keys the same way Ubuntu does. I have these settings:
echo $TERM displays xterm-color256 echo $SHELL displays /bin/sh Specifically, I'd like: a) The cursor-up key to perform the "history-search-backward" function b) The cursor-down key to perform the "history-search-forward" function c) The cursor-left and cursor-right keys to move thru the command just retrieved d) To be able to change the command by moving the cursor and typing over the retrieved command I've been able to use stty erase ^? in /etc/profile to set the backspace key, but my attempts at using ~/.inputrc to control the cursor keys have been unsuccessful. Trying different terminal types (eg export TERM=xterm or export TERM=vt100) has also not helped. Does anyone know how to do this?
