From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.5 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020809 Description of problem: The dot command no longer works in bash-2.05b. When editing a command in the bash history, use of the dot command puts the readline library in a strange state where many vi bindings don't work as expected. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run the bash shell 2.Place the shell in vi-mode editing with the 'set -o vi' command 3.Type several commands to add to the history 4.Type <ESC>k and then use k to scroll back some commands 5.Use the insert command ('i') to insert some text into a previous command 6.Type <ESC> 7.Use 'l' to move forward within the command 8.Type '.' to repeat the previous insert Actual Results: A terminal beep is heard and then various commands such as change-word (cw) no longer work Expected Results: Previous editing command should work Additional info: This bug has been patched by the GNU project.
