set to ~/.inputrc if it exists else set to /etc/inputrc if that exists
Trivial patch showing a possible solution.
if ~/.inputrc is a file, set $INPUTRC to that
else if /etc/inputrc is a file, set $INPUTRC to that
Please try to fix this for the next Red Hat release. It's a very simple fix, but in its current state, it causes problems for any tcsh user wanting to use Emacs, gdb, bash, or any other program that uses readline. The smallest change, and the one which makes the csh login script equivalent to the bash login script is to change: if ( -f $HOME/.inputrc ) then to if ( ! $?INPUTRC && ! -f $HOME/.inputrc ) then This was fixed in 2.5.32. |
