Re: up-line-or-search still 'fixed'!

[Andy Wick <awick@actor.cs.vt.edu>]

I sent a message a while back that up-line-or-search DOESN'T work AT ALL
on many platforms with zsh-3.1.2-zefram4, up-line-or-history DOES
work when bound to the arrow keys.  Can anyone get up-line-or-search to work 
with zefram4?

Thanks,
Andy
