- First of all, hi chuff!
-
- Well, Ok,, What is "sag"??
- If you guys need command line editing, there is one goo way to enable it
- for ksh, and that is to issue the command "set -o emacs"
-
- Then you will get emacs style command line eiting, ^P for the previous cmd,
- ^B for move cursor left etc..
-
- One other good thing that this feature has is "^[^[" filenamme completion,
- that is hit escape key 2wice with some startiyng chars and ksh wll try
- tomatch it with a filename.
-
- Its really useful.
-
- -hope this helps.
