Yes, I have almost the same - and for longer than 6 years when the
Stack Overflow article originates from, even though the notation of
the Esc character is a little different (but valid). :-)

Oh, by the way: Let me add a suggestion for ~/.inputrc which might
be useful for programs which use the readline mechanism:

	"\e[A": history-search-backward
	"\e[B": history-search-forward
	"\e[C": forward-char
	"\e[D": backward-char
	set show-all-if-ambiguous on
	set completion-ignore-case off

See "man 3 readline" for details.
