Hi List,

I finally figured it out: Somebody set the bash in vi-mode. Since I am relatively new in Linux I did not know that this is an option. A simple
"set -o emacs" in the profile did the job.

Thanks for all the replies.

Stefan

Betreff: AW: [opensuse] bash_history

I am using bash and vi. But the problem does not occur in vi, it is only in the shell. Ideas?

Greetings,

Stefan

Wierd!

What editor is set? If you're using vi, try hitting ESC, x
Of course, you probably want to change it if that's what's set, and I'm not sure how you do that (set -o emacs perhaps? I think that's what ksh would use).

Subject: [opensuse] bash_history

Hello,

I have a problem concerning the bash_history: When I use the arrow-keys
to flip through the different entries in the bash_history the last
character of the command line cannot be deleted. This is a bit
disturbing, since I did not change anything and this behaviour was not
there before.

Any help is welcome.

Thanks,

Stefan
