I am happy switching between the two with one niggle. I am a vi user, and I set EDITOR=vi. When I recall last command, ksh positions my cursor at the start of the line. This means if, for example, I do: file somefile and file tells me its ASCII text, in ksh I can say: ESC-k d e more and I'm looking at the file. zsh fores me to say: ESC-k 0 d e more I know, it's one character... but this key sequence is ingrained into me. This is the case even with 'ARGV0=ksh zsh'. Is there something I can do to make zsh /even more/ like ksh in this one regard? Please cc: me in any replies as I am not subscribed to the list. Many thanks in advance. -- Michael Pacey
