 I can confirm that. I suspect libreadline differs from bash’s readline.

for the benefit of people finding this thread and looking for more
vi-mode features in rlwrap, look at tecla and its 'enhance' which is a
replacement for rlwrap.  it has the vi key bindings i want.  or look
at the GNU readline links in the wikipedia page:
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_readline#External_links

bash readline

2013-01-30 Thread Jack Andrews
hi dd,

i really like the readline in bash - it seems bash is vi complete in vi mode.

now, i haven't looked closely, but i think the good vi mode is a patch
on (bash?) readline in debian?
in centos, i can't df; and delete up to next semicolon.

but on ubu^H^H^Hdebian, rlwrap uses the vanilla readline and it's
really annoying that i can't get the same line editing features with
rlwrap (and, i expect, readline).

what are my options?  patch readline?


ta, jack.
