readline and inputrc...

[Carlos Barros <cbf@redlider.com.uy>]

Hello!

	I don't know, but in bo the readline was as is, nothing
configured, so 'home' 'end' 'backspace' keys do nothing right untill
one configure those keys. What about to insert '.inputrc' file in
/etc/skell and (of course) in root's directory?

I think that those keys are usefull when configured. I have a
suggestion to this file:
--------------

# this is for other keyboard maping's (works for spanish)
set meta-flag on
set convert-meta off
set output-meta on

#export LC_CTYPE=ISO_8859_1

# keys for console
"\e[4~": end-of-line
"\e[1~": beginning-of-line
"\e[3~": delete-char

#keys only for xterm's   
#I'm not sure if this works (someone that help)
"\e[H": beginning-of-line
"\e[F": end-of-line

-----------------------
This is a users help. I don't know if it is done on hamm.
Like this, also a change is to use by default ls in colors
by doing alias ls='ls --color=auto' in .bashrc or as slackware did
changing defaults in ls's source file.

another thing to tell you is:
In bo,  'less' has, as hardcoded editor, 'ae' (ok. I hate it :). If
I remove ae (dpkg -e) it did not complain about any dependency, I
thought it was as the debian's standar editor. May be less should use
vi or $EDITOR variable.

I would be glad to hear somethig about this.

Bye
    Carlos Barros.
