All, Following https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Readline I was attempting to disable control echo by adding 'set echo-control-characters off' to ~/.inputrc. After logging out/in there is no change to the '^C' echo after 'ctrl+c' is pressed to terminate the present command. I even tried adding it to /etc/inputrc. Same result. Is there something else needed with the current readline? Also in this process, I noticed when I type '~' (e.g. like ~/tmp) the '~' is not echoed until the 2nd character is pressed. This is confusing. I've looked at /etc/inputrc and do not see anything that appears to suppress echo of '~' (or I was too dumb to recognize it). What is preventing the '~' from being echoed when it is typed as the first character? How do I fix it so it always is shown? (I'm using default BASH as the shell) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
