# set -o vi
 # ls -al /etc/mandrake-release | cut -c 40-
 45 Feb  7 09:23 /etc/mandrake-release
 # 
   now typing <ESC>$rX doesn't result in 
 # ls -al /etc/mandrake-release | cut -c 40X
   as it should, but instead results in
 # ls -al /etc/mandrake-release | cut -c 40X-
which it shouldn't ! ----------------------^^

 so it is *inserting* the char instead of replacing the last char.

 in anyone else experiencing the same behavior ?

 what could be the problem ?

if all other people are having this problem too, is cooker supplying good
/etc/inputrc ?
 # rpm -qf /etc/inputrc 
setup-2.1.9-34mdk
 # ls -al /etc/inputrc | cut -c 40-
661 Feb 15 06:03 /etc/inputrc
 # md5sum  /etc/inputrc
bcf147dbbc946c7f0da907260a8d9b18  /etc/inputrc

 # grep 'set -o vi' ~/.bashrc
set -o vi

    thx,

         Jan

PS : which RPM stores the VERSION info, that tells me which cooker version
have I installed ? (I think there is VERSION for the RPM set, and VERSION
for the installer. Are both these versions stored somewhere on the
installed fs ?)
PS2 : I may have gotten a related answer myself :
 # grep 'second stage' ~/report.bug 
* second stage install running (DrakX v1.457 built Wed Mar 14 19:27:55 2001)
