Having it delete a whole line is kinda useless, there are a thousand other ways to do that (like hitting ^C, for example). I always hate it when ^W in tcsh deletes the line but ^W in the tty line driver (type 'cat' or 'csh' and mess around with ^W) deletes only a word. I presume nobody has any complaints about putting the history bindings in: bindkey -k up history-search-backward bindkey -k down history-search-forward -Matt Matthew Dillon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
