It seems that a word is "anything other than whitespace" which gets really annoying when one use to delete part of a path because the whole path is destroyed :-( is "backward-delete-word" in tcsh and "backward-kill-word" in zsh BUT their notion of "word" is different. Example: tcsh> ls -l /usr/local/bin tcsh> ls -l /usr/local/ tcsh> ls -l /usr/ while in zsh, I get this... ("/" is not a word delimiter). zsh> ls -l /usr/local/bin zsh> ls -l Last time I checked, bash 2.x was behaving like tcsh. -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr Usenet Canal Historique
