Thanks Jacques :-) Yes, this trying to uncover something without knowing what it's called has proven to be quite interesting :-) The functionality I'm after is seemingly couched somewhere in the 'readline' function: http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?readline+3 or hopefully in a key-binding described here: http://info2html.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/info2html-demo/info2html?(readline.info.gz)Function%2520and%2520Variable%2520Index For all I know the functionality I have in mind could have been deprecated, and hopefully after I've read through the docs I'll be able to post a SOLVED. Thanks again to everyone for their invaluable insight and assistance, and have a great day! :-) Regards, Stuart -- Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
