Package: libreadline6 Version: 6.1-3 Severity: wishlist Tags: upstream It's been a common request for a long time that readline should support some kind of indicator, when in vi keybinding mode, to indicate whether readline is in insert mode or command mode.
I have discovered a recently-developed patch to add this functionality to readline. Please consider integrating it. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-readline/2010-11/msg00000.html -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libreadline6 depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-7 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libncurses5 5.7+20100313-4 shared libraries for terminal hand ii readline-common 6.1-3 GNU readline and history libraries libreadline6 recommends no packages. libreadline6 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
