bindkey -mevd bindkey -r in-string ... bindkey [ -a ] in-string [ command ] ... bindkey -s [ -a ] in-string out-string ... The -e and -v options put the keymaps in emacs mode or vi mode respectively; they cannot be used simul- taneously. The -d option resets all bindings to the compiled-in settings. If not used with options -e or -v, the maps will be left in emacs mode, or in vi mode if the VISUAL or EDITOR variables exist and contain the string "vi". Metafied characters are bound to self-insert by default. The -m option loads the compiled-in bindings of these characters for the mode determined by the preceding options, or the current mode if used alone. Any previous bindings done by the user will be preserved. If the -r option is given, remove any binding for each in- string. If the -s option is not specified, bind each in-string to a specified command. If no com- mand is specified, print the binding of in-string if it is bound, or return a nonzero exit code if it is not bound. If the -s option is specified, bind each in-string to each specified out-string. When in-string is typed, out-string will be pushed back and treated as input to the line editor. This pro- cess is recursive but, to avoid infinite loops, the shell will report an error if more than 20 consecu- tive replacements happen. If the -a option is spec- ified, bind the in-strings in the alternative keymap instead of the standard one. The alterna- tive keymap is used in vi command mode. It's possible for an in-string to be bound to some- thing and also be the beginning of a longer bound string. In this case the shell will wait a certain time to see if more characters are typed and if not it will execute the binding. This timeout is defined by the KEYTIMEOUT parameter; its default is 0.4 sec. No timeout is done if the prefix string is not bound. For either in-string or out-string, control charac- ters may be specified in the form ^X, and the back- slash may be used to introduce one of the following escape sequences: \a bell character \n linefeed (newline) \b backspace \t horizontal tab \v vertical tab \f form feed \r carriage return \e, \E escape \nnn character code in octal \M-xxx character or escape sequence with meta bit set. The `-' after the `M' is optional. \C-X control character. The `-' after the `C' is optional. In all other cases, \ escapes the following charac- ter. Delete is written as `^?'. Note that `\M^?' and `^\M?' are not the same. Multi-character in-strings cannot contain the null character ("^@" or "^ "). If they appear in a bind- key command, they will be silently translated to "\M-^@". This restriction does not apply to out- strings, single-character in-strings and the first character of a multi-char in-string. Movement vi-backward-blank-word (unbound) (B) Move backward one word, where a word is defined as a series of non-blank characters. backward-char (^B ESC-[D) () Move backward one character. vi-backward-char () (h) Move backward one character, without changing lines. backward-word (ESC-B ESC-b) (unbound) Move to the beginning of the previous word. emacs-backward-word Move to the beginning of the previous word. vi-backward-word (unbound) (b) Move to the beginning of the previous word, vi- style. beginning-of-line (^A) (0) Move to the beginning of the line. If already at the beginning of the line, move to the beginning of the previous line, if any. vi-beginning-of-line Move to the beginning of the line, without changing lines. end-of-line (^E) Move to the end of the line. If already at the end of the line, move to the end of the next line, if any. vi-end-of-line (unbound) ($) Move to the end of the line. vi-forward-blank-word (unbound) (W) Move forward one word, where a word is defined as a series of non-blank characters. vi-forward-blank-word-end (unbound) (E) Move to the end of the current word, or, if at the end of the current word, to the end of the next word, where a word is defined as a series of non- blank characters. forward-char (^F ESC-[C) Move forward one character. vi-forward-char (unbound) (space l) Move forward one character. vi-find-next-char (^X^F) (f) Read a character from the keyboard, and move to the next occurrence of it in the line. vi-find-next-char-skip (unbound) (t) Read a character from the keyboard, and move to the position just before the next occurrence of it in the line. vi-find-prev-char (unbound) (F) Read a character from the keyboard, and move to the previous occurrence of it in the line. vi-find-prev-char-skip (unbound) (T) Read a character from the keyboard, and move to the position just after the previous occurrence of it in the line. vi-first-non-blank (unbound) (^) Move to the first non-blank character in the line. vi-forward-word (unbound) (w) Move forward one word, vi-style. forward-word (ESC-F ESC-f) (unbound) Move to the beginning of the next word. The editor's idea of a word is specified with the WORD- CHARS parameter. emacs-forward-word Move to the end of the next word. vi-forward-word-end (unbound) (e) Move to the end of the next word. vi-goto-column (ESC-|) (|) Move to the column specified by the numeric argu- ment. vi-goto-mark (unbound) (`) Move to the specified mark. vi-goto-mark-line (unbound) (') Move to beginning of the line containing the speci- fied mark. vi-repeat-find (unbound) (;) Repeat the last vi-find command. vi-rev-repeat-find (unbound) (,) Repeat the last vi-find command in the opposite direction. History beginning-of-buffer-or-history (ESC-<) Move to the beginning of the buffer, or if already there, move to the first event in the history list. beginning-of-line-hist Move to the beginning of the line. If already at the beginning of the buffer, move to the previous history line. beginning-of-history Move to the first event in the history list. down-line-or-history (^N ESC-[B) (+ j) Move down a line in the buffer, or if already at the bottom line, move to the next event in the his- tory list. down-line-or-search Move down a line in the buffer, or if already at the bottom line, search forward in the history for a line beginning with the first word in the buffer. down-history (unbound) (^N) Move to the next event in the history list. history-beginning-search-backward (unbound) Search backward in the history for a line beginning with the current line up to the cursor. This leaves the cursor in its original position. end-of-buffer-or-history (ESC->) Move to the end of the buffer, or if already there, move to the last event in the history list. end-of-line-hist Move to the end of the line. If already at the end of the buffer, move to the next history line. end-of-history Move to the last event in the history list. vi-fetch-history (unbound) (G) Fetch the history line specified by the numeric argument. history-incremental-search-backward (^R ^Xr) Search backward incrementally for a specified string. The string may begin with `^' to anchor the search to the beginning of the line. A restricted set of editing functions is available in the mini-buffer. An interrupt signal, as defined by the stty setting, will stop the search and go back to the original line. An undefined key will have the same effect. The supported functions are: back- ward-delete-char, quoted-insert, accept-and-hold, accept-and-infer-next-history, accept-line and accept-line-and-down-history; magic-space just inserts a space. Any string that is bound to an out-string (via bindkey -s) will behave as if out- string were typed directly. Typing the binding of history-incremental-search-backward will get the next occurrence of the contents of the mini-buffer. Typing the binding of history-incremental-search- forward inverts the sense of the search. The direc- tion of the search is indicated in the mini-buffer. Any multi-character string that is not bound to one of the above functions will beep and interrupt the search, leaving the last found line in the buffer. Any single character that is not bound to one of the above functions, or self-insert or self-insert- unmeta, will have the same effect but the function will be executed. history-incremental-search-forward (^Xs) Search forward incrementally for a specified string. The string may begin with `^' to anchor the search to the beginning of the line. The func- tions available in the mini-buffer are the same as for history-incremental-search-backward. history-search-backward (ESC-P ESC-p) (K) Search backward in the history for a line beginning with the first word in the buffer. vi-history-search-backward (unbound) (/) Search backward in the history for a specified string. The string may begin with `^' to anchor the search to the beginning of the line. A restricted set of editing functions is available in the mini-buffer. An interrupt signal, as defined by the stty setting, will stop the search, as will a character bound to vi-cmd-mode. The functions available in the mini-buffer are: accept-line, backward-delete-char, vi-backward-delete-char and quoted-insert. Any string that is bound to an out- string (via bindkey -s) will behave as if out- string were typed directly. Any other character that is not bound to self-insert or self-insert- unmeta will beep and be ignored. If the function is called from vi command mode, the bindings of vi insert mode will be used. history-search-forward (ESC-N ESC-n) (J) Search forward in the history for a line beginning with the first word in the buffer. vi-history-search-forward (unbound) (?) Search forward in the history for a specified string. The string may begin with `^' to anchor the search to the beginning of the line.

Only works following yank or yank-pop. vi-yank (unbound) (y) Read a movement command from the keyboard, and copy the region from the cursor position to the endpoint of the movement into the kill buffer. If the com- mand is vi-yank, copy the current line. vi-yank-eol (unbound) (Y) Copy the region from the cursor position to the end of the line into the kill buffer. Arguments digit-argument (ESC-0..ESC-9) (0-9) Start a new numeric argument, or add to the current one. neg-argument (ESC-- unbound) Changes the sign of the following argument. universal-argument Multiply the argument of the next command by 4. Completion accept-and-menu-complete In a menu completion, insert the current completion into the buffer, and advance to the next possible completion. complete-word (unbound) (\) Attempt completion on the current word. delete-char-or-list (^D) Delete the character under the cursor. If the cur- sor is at the end of the line, list possible com- pletions for the current word. execute-named-cmd (ESC-x) Read the name of a editor command and execute it. A restricted set of editing functions is available in the mini-buffer. An interrupt signal, as defined by the stty setting, will abort the function. The allowed functions are: backward-delete-char, vi- backward-delete-char, kill-region (kills the last word), backward-kill-word, vi-backward-kill-word, kill-whole-line, vi-kill-line, backward-kill-line and accept-line. The space and tab characters, if not bound to one of these functions, will complete the name and then list the possibilities. execute-last-named-cmd (ESC-z) Redo the last function executed with execute-named- cmd. expand-cmd-path Expand the current command to its full pathname. expand-or-complete (TAB) (TAB ^X) Attempt shell expansion on the current word.

Yes, this is bound by default in emacs mode. vi-caps-lock-panic (unbound) (H K) Hang until any lowercase key is pressed. This is for vi users without the mental capacity to keep track of their caps lock key (like the author). clear-screen (^L ESC-^L) Clear the screen and redraw the prompt. exchange-point-and-mark (^X^X) Exchange the cursor position with the position of the mark. get-line (ESC-G ESC-g) Pop the top line off the buffer stack and insert it at the cursor position. pound-insert (unbound) (#) If there is no # character at the beginning of the current line, add one. If there is one, remove it. In either case, accept the current line. The INTERACTIVE_COMMENTS option must be set for this to have any usefulness. push-input Push the entire current multiline construct onto the buffer stack and return to the top-level (PS1) prompt. If the current parser construct is only a single line, this is exactly like push-line. Next time the editor starts up or is popped with get- line, the construct will be popped off the top of the buffer stack and loaded into the editing buffer. push-line (^Q ESC-Q ESC-q) Push the current buffer onto the buffer stack and clear the buffer. Next time the editor starts up, the buffer will be popped off the top of the buffer stack and loaded into the editing buffer. push-line-or-edit At the top-level (PS1) prompt, equivalent to push- line. At a secondary (PS2) prompt, move the entire current multiline construct into the editor buffer. The latter is equivalent to push-input followed by get-line. redisplay (unbound) (^R) Redisplays the edit buffer. send-break (^G) Abort the current editor function, eg. execute- named-command, or the editor itself, eg. if you are in vared. Otherwise abort the parsing of the cur- rent line. run-help (ESC-H ESC-h) Push the buffer onto the buffer stack, and execute the command "run-help cmd", where cmd is the cur- rent command. run-help is normally aliased to man. vi-set-buffer (unbound) (") Specify a buffer to be used in the following com- mand. vi-set-mark (unbound) (m) Set the specified mark at the cursor position. set-mark-command (^@) Set the mark at the cursor position. spell-word (ESC-$ ESC-S ESC-s) Attempt spelling correction on the current word. undefined-key Beep. undo (^_ ^Xu ^X^U) (u) Incrementally undo the last text modification. which-command (ESC-?) Push the buffer onto the buffer stack, and execute the command "which-command cmd", where cmd is the current command. which-command is normally aliased to whence.
