What happens when you press the cursor keys? This might help: on the zsh command line, for each arrow key, press CTRL-V then the arrow key Then edit your .zshrc or /etc/zshrc and add bindkey -e bindkey " " up-line-or-history # up-arrow bindkey " " down-line-or-history # down-arrow bindkey " " forward-char # right-arrow bindkey " " backward-char # left-arrow ^ instead of space, put whatever you noted on the command line for each arrow. The above is for emacs bindings. If you want vi bindings, change "bindkey -e" to "bindkey -v", and the names are up-history , down-history , vi-forward-char , vi-backward-char In a bindkey command, escapes which look like "^[" on the command line can be either a literal escape or the two characters ^ and [ -- Geoff Wing [mason@primenet.com.au] Technical Manager Phone : +61-3-9818 2977 PrimeNet - Internet Consultancy Facsimile: +61-3-9819 3788 Web : Mobile : 0412 162 441
