Commented the line in 4.0.4-1 - as long as it's the default, there's no reason to set it explicitly. It's just been there for a long time. |
You put in /etc/zshrc the line bindkey -e Which forces emacs mode. Why? The default zsh behavior already defaults to emacs, unless the user uses either bindkey -v or sets EDITOR or VISUAL to vi (or vi's full pathname). But because of that line you put in /etc/zshrc, setting VISUAL in .zprofile no longer works as explained in the manual (and as it used to), and now I'm forced to use "bindkey -v" in my own .zshrc. I think that this arms-race is not very useful, and it is better if Redhat's configuration don't try to enforce emacs mode...
