When I :do this from the console, it does not work. Is there a variable that needs :to be explicitly set somewhere to make this work? Are you in ``emacs'' keybindings? If you always want ``vi'' keybindings, do you have ``bindkey -v'' in your ~/.zshrc file? At invocation, zsh examines your VISUAL and EDITOR env. vars. to modifier default keybindings. See zshzle(1).
