Ouaaaahhh... There's so much Information about your System here, and
specially what Shell you're using. I wrote this little .inputrc, and I
know, it write correctly customize ;) Yeah, I got some mails about
this too :). You need the "bash" as shell. I don't think the tcsh or
another shell will read the .inputrc file at startup.
