jpayne@68 8 .SH DESCRIPTION
jpayne@68 9 The
jpayne@68 10 \fBeditrc\fP
jpayne@68 11 file defines various settings to be used by the
jpayne@68 12 \fBeditline\fP(3)
jpayne@68 13 library.
jpayne@68 14
jpayne@68 15 The format of each line is:
jpayne@68 16 is one of the
jpayne@68 17 builtin commands.
jpayne@68 18 Refer to
jpayne@68 19 for more information.
jpayne@68 20 is the program name string that a program defines when it calls
jpayne@68 21 to set up
jpayne@68 22 which is usually
jpayne@68 23 will be executed for any program which matches
jpayne@68 24 may also be a
jpayne@68 25 style
jpayne@68 26 regular expression, in which case
jpayne@68 27 will be executed for any program that matches the regular expression.
jpayne@68 28
jpayne@68 29 If
jpayne@68 30 is absent,
jpayne@68 31 is executed for all programs.
jpayne@68 32 The
jpayne@68 33 library has some builtin commands, which affect the way
jpayne@68 34 that the line editing and history functions operate.
jpayne@68 35 These are based on similar named builtins present in the
jpayne@68 36 shell.
jpayne@68 37
jpayne@68 38 The following builtin commands are available:
jpayne@68 39 Without options and arguments, list all bound keys and macros, and
jpayne@68 40 the editor command or input string to which each one is bound.
jpayne@68 41 If only
jpayne@68 42 is supplied, show the binding for that key or macro.
jpayne@68 43 If
jpayne@68 44 is supplied, bind the editor
jpayne@68 45 to that key or macro.
jpayne@68 46
jpayne@68 47 The options are as follows:
jpayne@68 48 List or change key bindings in the
jpayne@68 49 mode alternate (command mode) key map.
jpayne@68 50 Bind all keys to the standard
jpayne@68 51 Emacs-like bindings.
jpayne@68 52 is interpreted as a symbolic arrow key name, which may be one of
jpayne@68 53 or
jpayne@68 54 List all editor commands and a short description of each.
jpayne@68 55 Remove the binding of the key or macro
jpayne@68 56 Define a keyboard macro rather than a key binding or command macro:
jpayne@68 57 is taken as a literal string and appended to the input queue whenever
jpayne@68 58 is typed.
jpayne@68 59 Bound keys and macros in
jpayne@68 60 are themselves reinterpreted, and this continues for ten levels of
jpayne@68 61 interpretation.
jpayne@68 62 Bind all keys to the standard
jpayne@68 63 bindings.
jpayne@68 64
jpayne@68 65 The
jpayne@68 66 manual documents all editor commands and contains more information
jpayne@68 67 about macros and the input queue.
jpayne@68 68 and
jpayne@68 69 can contain control characters of the form
jpayne@68 70 e.g.\&
jpayne@68 71 and the following backslashed escape sequences:
jpayne@68 72 Bell
jpayne@68 73 Backspace
jpayne@68 74 Escape
jpayne@68 75 Formfeed
jpayne@68 76 Newline
jpayne@68 77 Carriage return
jpayne@68 78 Horizontal tab
jpayne@68 79 Vertical tab
jpayne@68 80 The
jpayne@68 81 character corresponding to the octal number
jpayne@68 82 nullifies the special meaning of the following character,
jpayne@68 83 if it has any, notably
jpayne@68 84 and
jpayne@68 85 Exercise terminal capabilities given in
jpayne@68 86 If
jpayne@68 87 is
jpayne@68 88 or
jpayne@68 89 the value of that capability is printed, with
jpayne@68 90 or
jpayne@68 91 indicating that the terminal does or does not have that capability.
jpayne@68 92 returns an empty string for non-existent capabilities, rather than
jpayne@68 93 causing an error.
jpayne@68 94 causes messages to be verbose.
jpayne@68 95 Enable or disable the
jpayne@68 96 functionality in a program.
jpayne@68 97 The
jpayne@68 98 command lists all entries in the history.
jpayne@68 99 The
jpayne@68 100 command sets the history size to
jpayne@68 101 entries.
jpayne@68 102 The
jpayne@68 103 command controls if history should keep duplicate entries.
jpayne@68 104 If
jpayne@68 105 is non zero, only keep unique history entries.
jpayne@68 106 If
jpayne@68 107 is zero, then keep all entries (the default).
jpayne@68 108 Set the terminal capability
jpayne@68 109 to
jpayne@68 110 as defined in
jpayne@68 111 No sanity checking is done.

jpayne@68 113 Control which tty modes that
jpayne@68 114 won't allow the user to change.
jpayne@68 115 or
jpayne@68 116 tells
jpayne@68 117 to act on the
jpayne@68 118 or
jpayne@68 119 set of tty modes respectively; defaulting to
jpayne@68 120
jpayne@68 121 Without other arguments,
jpayne@68 122 lists the modes in the chosen set which are fixed on
jpayne@68 123 or off
jpayne@68 124 lists all tty modes in the chosen set regardless of the setting.
jpayne@68 125 With
jpayne@68 126 or
jpayne@68 127 fixes
jpayne@68 128 on or off or removes control of
jpayne@68 129 in the chosen set.
jpayne@68 130 can also be used to set tty characters to particular values using
jpayne@68 131 If
jpayne@68 132 is empty
jpayne@68 133 then the character is set to
jpayne@68 134 List the values of all the terminal capabilities (see
jpayne@68 135 Names the default configuration file for the
jpayne@68 136 library.
jpayne@68 137 Last resort user configuration file for the
jpayne@68 138 library if no other file is specified.
jpayne@68 139 The
jpayne@68 140 library was written by
jpayne@68 141 and this manual was written by
jpayne@68 142 with some sections inspired by
