54. How do I set the Delete key to delete the char under the cursor in bash?
ANS:
Put the following into your ~/.inputrc file
"\e[1~":beginning-of-line [HOME KEY]
"\e[3~":delete-char [DELETE KEY]
"\e[4~":end-of-line [END KEY]
(ANS: from Chistopher Woods on the net)
No extra charge for the HOME and END keys!
This is for the text based bash (not an xterm).
