Binds don't work in vi-mode #9

Open ahills opened 9 years ago

BASH_VERSION is 4.3.33(1)-release. Pressing ^F just inserts ^F. Running set -o emacs causes qfc to work as expected.

Works for me in vi-mode, bash 4.3.39.

Also works for me in vi-mode.

bash --version
GNU bash, version 4.3.33(1)-release (x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0)

When you type set -o vi . Ctrl-f will be overridden by vi keybinding for that key-sequence(which is self-insert in this case). So you have to resource .bashrc for it to works.

I guess that's your issue

Unfortunately, set -o vi is in my profile at the very beginning, and the bind is added at the end of my .bashrc. Setting the mode to emacs makes it work right away without sourcing again, and setting it back to vi turns it off. How can I force the bind to apply to vi-mode?

The way I set vi-mode is by editing my Readline init file ~/.inputrc file like this:

set editing-mode vi

See more here: https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Readline-Init-File-Syntax.html#Readline-Init-File-Syntax

This way, you can avoid executing set -o vi in your ~/.bashrc file.

That would enable vi-mode for all my readline programs.
