The summary says it all, I've attached my own inputrc as replacement, it just adds: #for xterm "\eOH": beginning-of-line "\eOF": end-of-line And it adds some comments on why most lines are there.
Created attachment 71 [details] my inputrc
Fixed in setup >= 2.1, which will be in the next Raw Hide.
The fix in setup-2.1.3 is based upon a very old mail fo mine, sorry for the confusion :| . I thought entering the newer version of my inputrc in bugzilla would be enough. I see 2 problems wiht this fix: -it doesn't contain ^[[F / ^[[H for end / home, these are used by freebsd console and by a lott of broken xterm emulators. Telnetting from these will work better if these are present. -at the time I wrote the mail on which the current fixed is based I still thought it was a good idea to bind true 8-bit meta chars for alt-b and -alt-f to word-backward / word-forward. Later I learned that this might bite international characters, since then trying to input a + ^ for example will result in word backward. So please remove the M- bindings, and add the ^[[F / ^[[H bindings, or use the inputrc attached to the bugreport, it is identical to the one in setup-2.1.3 accept: -it adds ^[[F / ^[[H -it removes the M- bindings.
Will be fixed in setup-2.1.4.
