Thanks. That does indeed address my issue.

I understand and appreciate using the tty editing bindings by default, but
would it make sense to honor explicit overrides in the .inputrc without
requiring that tty editing inheritance behavior to be disabled?

I'm a long-time tcsh user (about 18 years), trying to transition to bash.
For what it's worth (probably not very much--I'm not a typical user), I do
actually miss the default ^R reprint behavior quite a bit when I find myself
in a default bash environment.

Thanks again for your help.
