[quoted lines by A. R. Vener on April 3, 2003, at 15:32] >In ksh I can press the escape key and select >a previous command line to edit and execute using the +, - and v keys. > >I now have to access a system that only has bash and >this procedure doesn't work in bash. Can someone familiar >with the bash version of command line editing help me out here? Use the up/down arrow keys to pick the command, and press return to execute it. You can edit a command line with the left/right arrow keys and basic Emacs-style control characters. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | I believe that the Bible is the Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Ottawa, Ontario | Word of God.
