[OT] avoiding recursive readline commands in .inputrc

2001-08-11 Thread Peter Jay Salzman
hi all, in bash, i'd like to map the uparrow key to "escape uparrow". the trouble is that there doesn't seem to be a way to make readline avoid the infinite recursion that results. specifically, i'm trying to do: $if bash "OA": "OA" $endif why? because i like using vi style editing in bash
