readline 6.3

1: READLINE(3) READLINE(3) 2: 3: 4: 5: NNAAMMEE 6: readline - get a line from a user with editing 7: 8: SSYYNNOOPPSSIISS 9: ##iinncclluuddee <<ssttddiioo..hh>> 10: ##iinncclluuddee <<rreeaaddlliinnee//rreeaaddlliinnee..hh>> 11: ##iinncclluuddee <<rreeaaddlliinnee//hhiissttoorryy..hh>> 12: 13: _c_h_a_r _* 14: rreeaaddlliinnee (_c_o_n_s_t _c_h_a_r _*_p_r_o_m_p_t); 15: 16: CCOOPPYYRRIIGGHHTT 17: Readline is Copyright (C) 1989-2011 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 18: 19: DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN 20: rreeaaddlliinnee will read a line from the terminal and return it, using pprroommpptt 21: as a prompt. If pprroommpptt is NNUULLLL or the empty string, no prompt is 22: issued. The line returned is allocated with _m_a_l_l_o_c(3); the caller must 23: free it when finished. The line returned has the final newline 24: removed, so only the text of the line remains. 25: 26: rreeaaddlliinnee offers editing capabilities while the user is entering the 27: line. By default, the line editing commands are similar to those of 28: emacs. A vi-style line editing interface is also available. 29: 30: This manual page describes only the most basic use of rreeaaddlliinnee. Much 31: more functionality is available; see _T_h_e _G_N_U _R_e_a_d_l_i_n_e _L_i_b_r_a_r_y and _T_h_e 32: _G_N_U _H_i_s_t_o_r_y _L_i_b_r_a_r_y for additional information. 33: 34: RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEE 35: rreeaaddlliinnee returns the text of the line read. A blank line returns the 36: empty string. If EEOOFF is encountered while reading a line, and the line 37: is empty, NNUULLLL is returned. If an EEOOFF is read with a non-empty line, 38: it is treated as a newline. 39: 40: NNOOTTAATTIIOONN 41: An Emacs-style notation is used to denote keystrokes. Control keys are 42: denoted by C-_k_e_y, e.g., C-n means Control-N. Similarly, _m_e_t_a keys are 43: denoted by M-_k_e_y, so M-x means Meta-X. (On keyboards without a _m_e_t_a 44: key, M-_x means ESC _x, i.e., press the Escape key then the _x key. This 45: makes ESC the _m_e_t_a _p_r_e_f_i_x. The combination M-C-_x means ESC-Control-_x, 46: or press the Escape key then hold the Control key while pressing the _x 47: key.) 48: 49: Readline commands may be given numeric _a_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s, which normally act as 50: a repeat count. Sometimes, however, it is the sign of the argument 51: that is significant. Passing a negative argument to a command that 52: acts in the forward direction (e.g., kkiillll--lliinnee) causes that command to 53: act in a backward direction. Commands whose behavior with arguments 54: deviates from this are noted. 55: 56: When a command is described as _k_i_l_l_i_n_g text, the text deleted is saved 57: for possible future retrieval (_y_a_n_k_i_n_g). The killed text is saved in a 58: _k_i_l_l _r_i_n_g. Consecutive kills cause the text to be accumulated into one 59: unit, which can be yanked all at once. Commands which do not kill text 60: separate the chunks of text on the kill ring. 61: 62: IINNIITTIIAALLIIZZAATTIIOONN FFIILLEE 63: Readline is customized by putting commands in an initialization file 64: (the _i_n_p_u_t_r_c file). The name of this file is taken from the value of 65: the IINNPPUUTTRRCC environment variable. If that variable is unset, the 66: default is _~_/_._i_n_p_u_t_r_c. If that file does not exist or cannot be read, 67: the ultimate default is _/_e_t_c_/_i_n_p_u_t_r_c. When a program which uses the 68: readline library starts up, the init file is read, and the key bindings 69: and variables are set. There are only a few basic constructs allowed 70: in the readline init file. Blank lines are ignored. Lines beginning 71: with a ## are comments. Lines beginning with a $$ indicate conditional 72: constructs. Other lines denote key bindings and variable settings. 73: Each program using this library may add its own commands and bindings. 74: 75: For example, placing 76: 77: M-Control-u: universal-argument 78: or 79: C-Meta-u: universal-argument 80: 81: into the _i_n_p_u_t_r_c would make M-C-u execute the readline command _u_n_i_v_e_r_- 82: _s_a_l_-_a_r_g_u_m_e_n_t. 83: 84: The following symbolic character names are recognized while processing 85: key bindings: _D_E_L, _E_S_C, _E_S_C_A_P_E, _L_F_D, _N_E_W_L_I_N_E, _R_E_T, _R_E_T_U_R_N, _R_U_B_O_U_T, 86: _S_P_A_C_E, _S_P_C, and _T_A_B. 87: 88: In addition to command names, readline allows keys to be bound to a 89: string that is inserted when the key is pressed (a _m_a_c_r_o). 90: 91: 92: KKeeyy BBiinnddiinnggss 93: The syntax for controlling key bindings in the _i_n_p_u_t_r_c file is simple. 94: All that is required is the name of the command or the text of a macro 95: and a key sequence to which it should be bound. The name may be speci- 96: fied in one of two ways: as a symbolic key name, possibly with _M_e_t_a_- or 97: _C_o_n_t_r_o_l_- prefixes, or as a key sequence. The name and key sequence are 98: separated by a colon. There can be no whitespace between the name and 99: the colon. 100: 101: When using the form kkeeyynnaammee:_f_u_n_c_t_i_o_n_-_n_a_m_e or _m_a_c_r_o, _k_e_y_n_a_m_e is the name 102: of a key spelled out in English. For example: 103: 104: Control-u: universal-argument 105: Meta-Rubout: backward-kill-word 106: Control-o: "> output" 107: 108: In the above example, _C_-_u is bound to the function uunniivveerrssaall--aarrgguummeenntt, 109: _M_-_D_E_L is bound to the function bbaacckkwwaarrdd--kkiillll--wwoorrdd, and _C_-_o is bound to 110: run the macro expressed on the right hand side (that is, to insert the 111: text ``> output'' into the line). 112: 113: In the second form, ""kkeeyysseeqq"":_f_u_n_c_t_i_o_n_-_n_a_m_e or _m_a_c_r_o, kkeeyysseeqq differs 114: from kkeeyynnaammee above in that strings denoting an entire key sequence may 115: be specified by placing the sequence within double quotes. Some GNU 116: Emacs style key escapes can be used, as in the following example, but 117: the symbolic character names are not recognized. 118: 119: "\C-u": universal-argument 120: "\C-x\C-r": re-read-init-file 121: "\e[11~": "Function Key 1" 122: 123: In this example, _C_-_u is again bound to the function uunniivveerrssaall--aarrgguummeenntt. 124: _C_-_x _C_-_r is bound to the function rree--rreeaadd--iinniitt--ffiillee, and _E_S_C _[ _1 _1 _~ is 125: bound to insert the text ``Function Key 1''. 126: 127: The full set of GNU Emacs style escape sequences available when speci- 128: fying key sequences is 129: \\CC-- control prefix 130: \\MM-- meta prefix 131: \\ee an escape character 132: \\\\ backslash 133: \\"" literal ", a double quote 134: \\'' literal ', a single quote 135: 136: In addition to the GNU Emacs style escape sequences, a second set of 137: backslash escapes is available: 138: \\aa alert (bell) 139: \\bb backspace 140: \\dd delete 141: \\ff form feed 142: \\nn newline 143: \\rr carriage return 144: \\tt horizontal tab 145: \\vv vertical tab 146: \\_n_n_n the eight-bit character whose value is the octal value 147: _n_n_n (one to three digits) 148: \\xx_H_H the eight-bit character whose value is the hexadecimal 149: value _H_H (one or two hex digits) 150: 151: When entering the text of a macro, single or double quotes should be 152: used to indicate a macro definition. Unquoted text is assumed to be a 153: function name. In the macro body, the backslash escapes described 154: above are expanded. Backslash will quote any other character in the 155: macro text, including " and '. 156: 157: BBaasshh allows the current readline key bindings to be displayed or modi- 158: fied with the bbiinndd builtin command. The editing mode may be switched 159: during interactive use by using the --oo option to the sseett builtin com- 160: mand. Other programs using this library provide similar mechanisms. 161: The _i_n_p_u_t_r_c file may be edited and re-read if a program does not pro- 162: vide any other means to incorporate new bindings. 163: 164: VVaarriiaabblleess 165: Readline has variables that can be used to further customize its behav- 166: ior. A variable may be set in the _i_n_p_u_t_r_c file with a statement of the 167: form 168: 169: sseett _v_a_r_i_a_b_l_e_-_n_a_m_e _v_a_l_u_e 170: 171: Except where noted, readline variables can take the values OOnn or OOffff 172: (without regard to case). Unrecognized variable names are ignored. 173: When a variable value is read, empty or null values, "on" (case-insen- 174: sitive), and "1" are equivalent to OOnn. All other values are equivalent 175: to OOffff. The variables and their default values are: 176: 177: bbeellll--ssttyyllee ((aauuddiibbllee)) 178: Controls what happens when readline wants to ring the terminal 179: bell. If set to nnoonnee, readline never rings the bell. If set to 180: vviissiibbllee, readline uses a visible bell if one is available. If 181: set to aauuddiibbllee, readline attempts to ring the terminal's bell. 182: bbiinndd--ttttyy--ssppeecciiaall--cchhaarrss ((OOnn)) 183: If set to OOnn, readline attempts to bind the control characters 184: treated specially by the kernel's terminal driver to their read- 185: line equivalents. 186: ccoolloorreedd--ssttaattss ((OOffff)) 187: If set to OOnn, readline displays possible completions using dif- 188: ferent colors to indicate their file type. The color defini- 189: tions are taken from the value of the LLSS__CCOOLLOORRSS environment 190: variable. 191: ccoommmmeenntt--bbeeggiinn ((````##'''')) 192: The string that is inserted in vvii mode when the iinnsseerrtt--ccoommmmeenntt 193: command is executed. This command is bound to MM--## in emacs mode 194: and to ## in vi command mode. 195: ccoommpplleettiioonn--ddiissppllaayy--wwiiddtthh ((--11)) 196: The number of screen columns used to display possible matches 197: when performing completion. The value is ignored if it is less 198: than 0 or greater than the terminal screen width. A value of 0 199: will cause matches to be displayed one per line. The default 200: value is -1. 201: ccoommpplleettiioonn--iiggnnoorree--ccaassee ((OOffff)) 202: If set to OOnn, readline performs filename matching and completion 203: in a case-insensitive fashion. 204: ccoommpplleettiioonn--mmaapp--ccaassee ((OOffff)) 205: If set to OOnn, and ccoommpplleettiioonn--iiggnnoorree--ccaassee is enabled, readline 206: treats hyphens (_-) and underscores (__) as equivalent when per- 207: forming case-insensitive filename matching and completion. 208: ccoommpplleettiioonn--pprreeffiixx--ddiissppllaayy--lleennggtthh ((00)) 209: The length in characters of the common prefix of a list of pos- 210: sible completions that is displayed without modification. When 211: set to a value greater than zero, common prefixes longer than 212: this value are replaced with an ellipsis when displaying possi- 213: ble completions. 214: ccoommpplleettiioonn--qquueerryy--iitteemmss ((110000)) 215: This determines when the user is queried about viewing the num- 216: ber of possible completions generated by the ppoossssiibbllee--ccoommppllee-- 217: ttiioonnss command. It may be set to any integer value greater than 218: or equal to zero. If the number of possible completions is 219: greater than or equal to the value of this variable, the user is 220: asked whether or not he wishes to view them; otherwise they are 221: simply listed on the terminal. A negative value causes readline 222: to never ask. 223: ccoonnvveerrtt--mmeettaa ((OOnn)) 224: If set to OOnn, readline will convert characters with the eighth 225: bit set to an ASCII key sequence by stripping the eighth bit and 226: prefixing it with an escape character (in effect, using escape 227: as the _m_e_t_a _p_r_e_f_i_x). 228: ddiissaabbllee--ccoommpplleettiioonn ((OOffff)) 229: If set to OOnn, readline will inhibit word completion. Completion 230: characters will be inserted into the line as if they had been 231: mapped to sseellff--iinnsseerrtt. 232: eeddiittiinngg--mmooddee ((eemmaaccss)) 233: Controls whether readline begins with a set of key bindings sim- 234: ilar to _E_m_a_c_s or _v_i. eeddiittiinngg--mmooddee can be set to either eemmaaccss or 235: vvii. 236: eecchhoo--ccoonnttrrooll--cchhaarraacctteerrss ((OOnn)) 237: When set to OOnn, on operating systems that indicate they support 238: it, readline echoes a character corresponding to a signal gener- 239: ated from the keyboard. 240: eennaabbllee--kkeeyyppaadd ((OOffff)) 241: When set to OOnn, readline will try to enable the application key- 242: pad when it is called. Some systems need this to enable the 243: arrow keys. 244: eennaabbllee--mmeettaa--kkeeyy ((OOnn)) 245: When set to OOnn, readline will try to enable any meta modifier 246: key the terminal claims to support when it is called. On many 247: terminals, the meta key is used to send eight-bit characters. 248: eexxppaanndd--ttiillddee ((OOffff)) 249: If set to OOnn, tilde expansion is performed when readline 250: attempts word completion. 251: hhiissttoorryy--pprreesseerrvvee--ppooiinntt ((OOffff)) 252: If set to OOnn, the history code attempts to place point at the 253: same location on each history line retrieved with pprreevviioouuss--hhiiss-- 254: ttoorryy or nneexxtt--hhiissttoorryy. 255: hhiissttoorryy--ssiizzee ((00)) 256: Set the maximum number of history entries saved in the history 257: list. If set to zero, any existing history entries are deleted 258: and no new entries are saved. If set to a value less than zero, 259: the number of history entries is not limited. By default, the 260: number of history entries is not limited. 261: hhoorriizzoonnttaall--ssccrroollll--mmooddee ((OOffff)) 262: When set to OOnn, makes readline use a single line for display, 263: scrolling the input horizontally on a single screen line when it 264: becomes longer than the screen width rather than wrapping to a 265: new line. 266: iinnppuutt--mmeettaa ((OOffff)) 267: If set to OOnn, readline will enable eight-bit input (that is, it 268: will not clear the eighth bit in the characters it reads), 269: regardless of what the terminal claims it can support. The name 270: mmeettaa--ffllaagg is a synonym for this variable. 271: iisseeaarrcchh--tteerrmmiinnaattoorrss ((````CC--[[ CC--JJ'''')) 272: The string of characters that should terminate an incremental 273: search without subsequently executing the character as a com- 274: mand. If this variable has not been given a value, the charac- 275: ters _E_S_C and _C_-_J will terminate an incremental search. 276: kkeeyymmaapp ((eemmaaccss)) 277: Set the current readline keymap. The set of legal keymap names 278: is _e_m_a_c_s_, _e_m_a_c_s_-_s_t_a_n_d_a_r_d_, _e_m_a_c_s_-_m_e_t_a_, _e_m_a_c_s_-_c_t_l_x_, _v_i_, _v_i_-_m_o_v_e_, 279: _v_i_-_c_o_m_m_a_n_d, and _v_i_-_i_n_s_e_r_t. _v_i is equivalent to _v_i_-_c_o_m_m_a_n_d; 280: _e_m_a_c_s is equivalent to _e_m_a_c_s_-_s_t_a_n_d_a_r_d. The default value is 281: _e_m_a_c_s. The value of eeddiittiinngg--mmooddee also affects the default 282: keymap. 283: kkeeyysseeqq--ttiimmeeoouutt ((550000)) 284: Specifies the duration _r_e_a_d_l_i_n_e will wait for a character when 285: reading an ambiguous key sequence (one that can form a complete 286: key sequence using the input read so far, or can take additional 287: input to complete a longer key sequence). If no input is 288: received within the timeout, _r_e_a_d_l_i_n_e will use the shorter but 289: complete key sequence. The value is specified in milliseconds, 290: so a value of 1000 means that _r_e_a_d_l_i_n_e will wait one second for 291: additional input. If this variable is set to a value less than 292: or equal to zero, or to a non-numeric value, _r_e_a_d_l_i_n_e will wait 293: until another key is pressed to decide which key sequence to 294: complete. 295: mmaarrkk--ddiirreeccttoorriieess ((OOnn)) 296: If set to OOnn, completed directory names have a slash appended. 297: mmaarrkk--mmooddiiffiieedd--lliinneess ((OOffff)) 298: If set to OOnn, history lines that have been modified are dis- 299: played with a preceding asterisk (**). 300: mmaarrkk--ssyymmlliinnkkeedd--ddiirreeccttoorriieess ((OOffff)) 301: If set to OOnn, completed names which are symbolic links to direc- 302: tories have a slash appended (subject to the value of 303: mmaarrkk--ddiirreeccttoorriieess). 304: mmaattcchh--hhiiddddeenn--ffiilleess ((OOnn)) 305: This variable, when set to OOnn, causes readline to match files 306: whose names begin with a `.' (hidden files) when performing 307: filename completion. If set to OOffff, the leading `.' must be 308: supplied by the user in the filename to be completed. 309: mmeennuu--ccoommpplleettee--ddiissppllaayy--pprreeffiixx ((OOffff)) 310: If set to OOnn, menu completion displays the common prefix of the 311: list of possible completions (which may be empty) before cycling 312: through the list. 313: oouuttppuutt--mmeettaa ((OOffff)) 314: If set to OOnn, readline will display characters with the eighth 315: bit set directly rather than as a meta-prefixed escape sequence. 316: ppaaggee--ccoommpplleettiioonnss ((OOnn)) 317: If set to OOnn, readline uses an internal _m_o_r_e-like pager to dis- 318: play a screenful of possible completions at a time. 319: pprriinntt--ccoommpplleettiioonnss--hhoorriizzoonnttaallllyy ((OOffff)) 320: If set to OOnn, readline will display completions with matches 321: sorted horizontally in alphabetical order, rather than down the 322: screen. 323: rreevveerrtt--aallll--aatt--nneewwlliinnee ((OOffff)) 324: If set to OOnn, readline will undo all changes to history lines 325: before returning when aacccceepptt--lliinnee is executed. By default, his- 326: tory lines may be modified and retain individual undo lists 327: across calls to rreeaaddlliinnee. 328: sshhooww--aallll--iiff--aammbbiigguuoouuss ((OOffff)) 329: This alters the default behavior of the completion functions. 330: If set to OOnn, words which have more than one possible completion 331: cause the matches to be listed immediately instead of ringing 332: the bell. 333: sshhooww--aallll--iiff--uunnmmooddiiffiieedd ((OOffff)) 334: This alters the default behavior of the completion functions in 335: a fashion similar to sshhooww--aallll--iiff--aammbbiigguuoouuss. If set to OOnn, words 336: which have more than one possible completion without any possi- 337: ble partial completion (the possible completions don't share a 338: common prefix) cause the matches to be listed immediately 339: instead of ringing the bell. 340: sshhooww--mmooddee--iinn--pprroommpptt ((OOffff)) 341: If set to OOnn, add a character to the beginning of the prompt 342: indicating the editing mode: emacs (@), vi command (:) or vi 343: insertion (+). 344: sskkiipp--ccoommpplleetteedd--tteexxtt ((OOffff)) 345: If set to OOnn, this alters the default completion behavior when 346: inserting a single match into the line. It's only active when 347: performing completion in the middle of a word. If enabled, 348: readline does not insert characters from the completion that 349: match characters after point in the word being completed, so 350: portions of the word following the cursor are not duplicated. 351: vviissiibbllee--ssttaattss ((OOffff)) 352: If set to OOnn, a character denoting a file's type as reported by 353: _s_t_a_t(2) is appended to the filename when listing possible com- 354: pletions. 355: 356: CCoonnddiittiioonnaall CCoonnssttrruuccttss 357: Readline implements a facility similar in spirit to the conditional 358: compilation features of the C preprocessor which allows key bindings 359: and variable settings to be performed as the result of tests. There 360: are four parser directives used. 361: 362: $$iiff The $$iiff construct allows bindings to be made based on the edit- 363: ing mode, the terminal being used, or the application using 364: readline. The text of the test extends to the end of the line; 365: no characters are required to isolate it. 366: 367: mmooddee The mmooddee== form of the $$iiff directive is used to test 368: whether readline is in emacs or vi mode. This may be 369: used in conjunction with the sseett kkeeyymmaapp command, for 370: instance, to set bindings in the _e_m_a_c_s_-_s_t_a_n_d_a_r_d and 371: _e_m_a_c_s_-_c_t_l_x keymaps only if readline is starting out in 372: emacs mode. 373: 374: tteerrmm The tteerrmm== form may be used to include terminal-specific 375: key bindings, perhaps to bind the key sequences output by 376: the terminal's function keys. The word on the right side 377: of the == is tested against the full name of the terminal 378: and the portion of the terminal name before the first --. 379: This allows _s_u_n to match both _s_u_n and _s_u_n_-_c_m_d, for 380: instance. 381: 382: aapppplliiccaattiioonn 383: The aapppplliiccaattiioonn construct is used to include application- 384: specific settings. Each program using the readline 385: library sets the _a_p_p_l_i_c_a_t_i_o_n _n_a_m_e, and an initialization 386: file can test for a particular value. This could be used 387: to bind key sequences to functions useful for a specific 388: program. For instance, the following command adds a key 389: sequence that quotes the current or previous word in 390: bbaasshh: 391: 392: $$iiff Bash 393: # Quote the current or previous word 394: "\C-xq": "\eb\"\ef\"" 395: $$eennddiiff 396: 397: $$eennddiiff This command, as seen in the previous example, terminates an $$iiff 398: command. 399: 400: $$eellssee Commands in this branch of the $$iiff directive are executed if the 401: test fails. 402: 403: $$iinncclluuddee 404: This directive takes a single filename as an argument and reads 405: commands and bindings from that file.

There are two search modes: 413: _i_n_c_r_e_m_e_n_t_a_l and _n_o_n_-_i_n_c_r_e_m_e_n_t_a_l. 414: 415: Incremental searches begin before the user has finished typing the 416: search string. As each character of the search string is typed, read- 417: line displays the next entry from the history matching the string typed 418: so far. An incremental search requires only as many characters as 419: needed to find the desired history entry. To search backward in the 420: history for a particular string, type CC--rr. Typing CC--ss searches forward 421: through the history. The characters present in the value of the 422: iisseeaarrcchh--tteerrmmiinnaattoorrss variable are used to terminate an incremental 423: search. If that variable has not been assigned a value the _E_s_c_a_p_e and 424: CC--JJ characters will terminate an incremental search. CC--GG will abort an 425: incremental search and restore the original line. When the search is 426: terminated, the history entry containing the search string becomes the 427: current line. 428: 429: To find other matching entries in the history list, type CC--ss or CC--rr as 430: appropriate. This will search backward or forward in the history for 431: the next line matching the search string typed so far. Any other key 432: sequence bound to a readline command will terminate the search and exe- 433: cute that command. For instance, a newline will terminate the search 434: and accept the line, thereby executing the command from the history 435: list. A movement command will terminate the search, make the last line 436: found the current line, and begin editing. 437: 438: Non-incremental searches read the entire search string before starting 439: to search for matching history lines. The search string may be typed 440: by the user or be part of the contents of the current line. 441: 442: EEDDIITTIINNGG CCOOMMMMAANNDDSS 443: The following is a list of the names of the commands and the default 444: key sequences to which they are bound.

This is an incremental 494: search. 495: ffoorrwwaarrdd--sseeaarrcchh--hhiissttoorryy ((CC--ss)) 496: Search forward starting at the current line and moving `down' 497: through the history as necessary. This is an incremental 498: search. 499: nnoonn--iinnccrreemmeennttaall--rreevveerrssee--sseeaarrcchh--hhiissttoorryy ((MM--pp)) 500: Search backward through the history starting at the current line 501: using a non-incremental search for a string supplied by the 502: user. 503: nnoonn--iinnccrreemmeennttaall--ffoorrwwaarrdd--sseeaarrcchh--hhiissttoorryy ((MM--nn)) 504: Search forward through the history using a non-incremental 505: search for a string supplied by the user. 506: hhiissttoorryy--sseeaarrcchh--bbaacckkwwaarrdd 507: Search backward through the history for the string of characters 508: between the start of the current line and the current cursor 509: position (the _p_o_i_n_t). The search string must match at the 510: beginning of a history line. This is a non-incremental search. 511: hhiissttoorryy--sseeaarrcchh--ffoorrwwaarrdd 512: Search forward through the history for the string of characters 513: between the start of the current line and the point. The search 514: string must match at the beginning of a history line. This is a 515: non-incremental search. 516: hhiissttoorryy--ssuubbssttrriinngg--sseeaarrcchh--bbaacckkwwaarrdd 517: Search backward through the history for the string of characters 518: between the start of the current line and the current cursor 519: position (the _p_o_i_n_t). The search string may match anywhere in a 520: history line. This is a non-incremental search. 521: hhiissttoorryy--ssuubbssttrriinngg--sseeaarrcchh--ffoorrwwaarrdd 522: Search forward through the history for the string of characters 523: between the start of the current line and the point. The search 524: string may match anywhere in a history line. This is a non- 525: incremental search. 526: yyaannkk--nntthh--aarrgg ((MM--CC--yy)) 527: Insert the first argument to the previous command (usually the 528: second word on the previous line) at point. With an argument _n, 529: insert the _nth word from the previous command (the words in the 530: previous command begin with word 0). A negative argument 531: inserts the _nth word from the end of the previous command. Once 532: the argument _n is computed, the argument is extracted as if the 533: "!_n" history expansion had been specified. 534: yyaannkk--llaasstt--aarrgg ((MM--..,, MM--__)) 535: Insert the last argument to the previous command (the last word 536: of the previous history entry). With a numeric argument, behave 537: exactly like yyaannkk--nntthh--aarrgg. Successive calls to yyaannkk--llaasstt--aarrgg 538: move back through the history list, inserting the last word (or 539: the word specified by the argument to the first call) of each 540: line in turn. Any numeric argument supplied to these successive 541: calls determines the direction to move through the history. A 542: negative argument switches the direction through the history 543: (back or forward). The history expansion facilities are used to 544: extract the last argument, as if the "!$" history expansion had 545: been specified. 546: 547: CCoommmmaannddss ffoorr CChhaannggiinngg TTeexxtt 548: _e_n_d_-_o_f_-_f_i_l_e ((uussuuaallllyy CC--dd)) 549: The character indicating end-of-file as set, for example, by 550: ``stty''. If this character is read when there are no charac- 551: ters on the line, and point is at the beginning of the line, 552: Readline interprets it as the end of input and returns EEOOFF. 553: ddeelleettee--cchhaarr ((CC--dd)) 554: Delete the character at point. If this function is bound to the 555: same character as the tty EEOOFF character, as CC--dd commonly is, see 556: above for the effects. 557: bbaacckkwwaarrdd--ddeelleettee--cchhaarr ((RRuubboouutt)) 558: Delete the character behind the cursor. When given a numeric 559: argument, save the deleted text on the kill ring. 560: ffoorrwwaarrdd--bbaacckkwwaarrdd--ddeelleettee--cchhaarr 561: Delete the character under the cursor, unless the cursor is at 562: the end of the line, in which case the character behind the cur- 563: sor is deleted. 564: qquuootteedd--iinnsseerrtt ((CC--qq,, CC--vv)) 565: Add the next character that you type to the line verbatim. This 566: is how to insert characters like CC--qq, for example. 567: ttaabb--iinnsseerrtt ((MM--TTAABB)) 568: Insert a tab character. 569: sseellff--iinnsseerrtt ((aa,, bb,, AA,, 11,, !!,, ......)) 570: Insert the character typed. 571: ttrraannssppoossee--cchhaarrss ((CC--tt)) 572: Drag the character before point forward over the character at 573: point, moving point forward as well. If point is at the end of 574: the line, then this transposes the two characters before point. 575: Negative arguments have no effect. 576: ttrraannssppoossee--wwoorrddss ((MM--tt)) 577: Drag the word before point past the word after point, moving 578: point over that word as well. If point is at the end of the 579: line, this transposes the last two words on the line. 580: uuppccaassee--wwoorrdd ((MM--uu)) 581: Uppercase the current (or following) word. With a negative 582: argument, uppercase the previous word, but do not move point. 583: ddoowwnnccaassee--wwoorrdd ((MM--ll)) 584: Lowercase the current (or following) word. With a negative 585: argument, lowercase the previous word, but do not move point. 586: ccaappiittaalliizzee--wwoorrdd ((MM--cc)) 587: Capitalize the current (or following) word. With a negative 588: argument, capitalize the previous word, but do not move point. 589: oovveerrwwrriittee--mmooddee 590: Toggle overwrite mode. With an explicit positive numeric argu- 591: ment, switches to overwrite mode. With an explicit non-positive 592: numeric argument, switches to insert mode. This command affects 593: only eemmaaccss mode; vvii mode does overwrite differently. Each call 594: to _r_e_a_d_l_i_n_e_(_) starts in insert mode. In overwrite mode, charac- 595: ters bound to sseellff--iinnsseerrtt replace the text at point rather than 596: pushing the text to the right. Characters bound to bbaacckk-- 597: wwaarrdd--ddeelleettee--cchhaarr replace the character before point with a 598: space. By default, this command is unbound. 599: 600: KKiilllliinngg aanndd YYaannkkiinngg 601: kkiillll--lliinnee ((CC--kk)) 602: Kill the text from point to the end of the line. 603: bbaacckkwwaarrdd--kkiillll--lliinnee ((CC--xx RRuubboouutt)) 604: Kill backward to the beginning of the line. 605: uunniixx--lliinnee--ddiissccaarrdd ((CC--uu)) 606: Kill backward from point to the beginning of the line. The 607: killed text is saved on the kill-ring. 608: kkiillll--wwhhoollee--lliinnee 609: Kill all characters on the current line, no matter where point 610: is. 611: kkiillll--wwoorrdd ((MM--dd)) 612: Kill from point the end of the current word, or if between 613: words, to the end of the next word. Word boundaries are the 614: same as those used by ffoorrwwaarrdd--wwoorrdd. 615: bbaacckkwwaarrdd--kkiillll--wwoorrdd ((MM--RRuubboouutt)) 616: Kill the word behind point. Word boundaries are the same as 617: those used by bbaacckkwwaarrdd--wwoorrdd. 618: uunniixx--wwoorrdd--rruubboouutt ((CC--ww)) 619: Kill the word behind point, using white space as a word bound- 620: ary. The killed text is saved on the kill-ring. 621: uunniixx--ffiilleennaammee--rruubboouutt 622: Kill the word behind point, using white space and the slash 623: character as the word boundaries. The killed text is saved on 624: the kill-ring. 625: ddeelleettee--hhoorriizzoonnttaall--ssppaaccee ((MM--\\)) 626: Delete all spaces and tabs around point. 627: kkiillll--rreeggiioonn 628: Kill the text between the point and _m_a_r_k (saved cursor posi- 629: tion). This text is referred to as the _r_e_g_i_o_n. 630: ccooppyy--rreeggiioonn--aass--kkiillll 631: Copy the text in the region to the kill buffer. 632: ccooppyy--bbaacckkwwaarrdd--wwoorrdd 633: Copy the word before point to the kill buffer. The word bound- 634: aries are the same as bbaacckkwwaarrdd--wwoorrdd. 635: ccooppyy--ffoorrwwaarrdd--wwoorrdd 636: Copy the word following point to the kill buffer. The word 637: boundaries are the same as ffoorrwwaarrdd--wwoorrdd. 638: yyaannkk ((CC--yy)) 639: Yank the top of the kill ring into the buffer at point. 640: yyaannkk--ppoopp ((MM--yy)) 641: Rotate the kill ring, and yank the new top. Only works follow- 642: ing yyaannkk or yyaannkk--ppoopp. 643: 644: NNuummeerriicc AArrgguummeennttss 645: ddiiggiitt--aarrgguummeenntt ((MM--00,, MM--11,, ......,, MM----)) 646: Add this digit to the argument already accumulating, or start a 647: new argument. M-- starts a negative argument. 648: uunniivveerrssaall--aarrgguummeenntt 649: This is another way to specify an argument. If this command is 650: followed by one or more digits, optionally with a leading minus 651: sign, those digits define the argument. If the command is fol- 652: lowed by digits, executing uunniivveerrssaall--aarrgguummeenntt again ends the 653: numeric argument, but is otherwise ignored. As a special case, 654: if this command is immediately followed by a character that is 655: neither a digit or minus sign, the argument count for the next 656: command is multiplied by four. The argument count is initially 657: one, so executing this function the first time makes the argu- 658: ment count four, a second time makes the argument count sixteen, 659: and so on. 660: 661: CCoommpplleettiinngg 662: ccoommpplleettee ((TTAABB)) 663: Attempt to perform completion on the text before point. The 664: actual completion performed is application-specific. BBaasshh, for 665: instance, attempts completion treating the text as a variable 666: (if the text begins with $$), username (if the text begins with 667: ~~), hostname (if the text begins with @@), or command (including 668: aliases and functions) in turn. If none of these produces a 669: match, filename completion is attempted. GGddbb, on the other 670: hand, allows completion of program functions and variables, and 671: only attempts filename completion under certain circumstances. 672: ppoossssiibbllee--ccoommpplleettiioonnss ((MM--??)) 673: List the possible completions of the text before point. When 674: displaying completions, readline sets the number of columns used 675: for display to the value of ccoommpplleettiioonn--ddiissppllaayy--wwiiddtthh, the value 676: of the environment variable CCOOLLUUMMNNSS, or the screen width, in 677: that order. 678: iinnsseerrtt--ccoommpplleettiioonnss ((MM--**)) 679: Insert all completions of the text before point that would have 680: been generated by ppoossssiibbllee--ccoommpplleettiioonnss. 681: mmeennuu--ccoommpplleettee 682: Similar to ccoommpplleettee, but replaces the word to be completed with 683: a single match from the list of possible completions. Repeated 684: execution of mmeennuu--ccoommpplleettee steps through the list of possible 685: completions, inserting each match in turn. At the end of the 686: list of completions, the bell is rung (subject to the setting of 687: bbeellll--ssttyyllee) and the original text is restored. An argument of _n 688: moves _n positions forward in the list of matches; a negative 689: argument may be used to move backward through the list. This 690: command is intended to be bound to TTAABB, but is unbound by 691: default. 692: mmeennuu--ccoommpplleettee--bbaacckkwwaarrdd 693: Identical to mmeennuu--ccoommpplleettee, but moves backward through the list 694: of possible completions, as if mmeennuu--ccoommpplleettee had been given a 695: negative argument. This command is unbound by default. 696: ddeelleettee--cchhaarr--oorr--lliisstt 697: Deletes the character under the cursor if not at the beginning 698: or end of the line (like ddeelleettee--cchhaarr). If at the end of the 699: line, behaves identically to ppoossssiibbllee--ccoommpplleettiioonnss. 700: 701: KKeeyybbooaarrdd MMaaccrrooss 702: ssttaarrtt--kkbbdd--mmaaccrroo ((CC--xx (()) 703: Begin saving the characters typed into the current keyboard 704: macro. 705: eenndd--kkbbdd--mmaaccrroo ((CC--xx )))) 706: Stop saving the characters typed into the current keyboard macro 707: and store the definition. 708: ccaallll--llaasstt--kkbbdd--mmaaccrroo ((CC--xx ee)) 709: Re-execute the last keyboard macro defined, by making the char- 710: acters in the macro appear as if typed at the keyboard. 711: pprriinntt--llaasstt--kkbbdd--mmaaccrroo (()) Print the last keyboard macro defined in 712: a format suitable for the _i_n_p_u_t_r_c file. 713: 714: MMiisscceellllaanneeoouuss 715: rree--rreeaadd--iinniitt--ffiillee ((CC--xx CC--rr)) 716: Read in the contents of the _i_n_p_u_t_r_c file, and incorporate any 717: bindings or variable assignments found there. 718: aabboorrtt ((CC--gg)) 719: Abort the current editing command and ring the terminal's bell 720: (subject to the setting of bbeellll--ssttyyllee). 721: ddoo--uuppppeerrccaassee--vveerrssiioonn ((MM--aa,, MM--bb,, MM--_x,, ......)) 722: If the metafied character _x is lowercase, run the command that 723: is bound to the corresponding uppercase character. 724: pprreeffiixx--mmeettaa ((EESSCC)) 725: Metafy the next character typed. EESSCC ff is equivalent to MMeettaa--ff. 726: uunnddoo ((CC--__,, CC--xx CC--uu)) 727: Incremental undo, separately remembered for each line. 728: rreevveerrtt--lliinnee ((MM--rr)) 729: Undo all changes made to this line. This is like executing the 730: uunnddoo command enough times to return the line to its initial 731: state. 732: ttiillddee--eexxppaanndd ((MM--&&)) 733: Perform tilde expansion on the current word. 734: sseett--mmaarrkk ((CC--@@,, MM--<<ssppaaccee>>)) 735: Set the mark to the point. If a numeric argument is supplied, 736: the mark is set to that position. 737: eexxcchhaannggee--ppooiinntt--aanndd--mmaarrkk ((CC--xx CC--xx)) 738: Swap the point with the mark. The current cursor position is 739: set to the saved position, and the old cursor position is saved 740: as the mark. 741: cchhaarraacctteerr--sseeaarrcchh ((CC--]])) 742: A character is read and point is moved to the next occurrence of 743: that character. A negative count searches for previous occur- 744: rences. 745: cchhaarraacctteerr--sseeaarrcchh--bbaacckkwwaarrdd ((MM--CC--]])) 746: A character is read and point is moved to the previous occur- 747: rence of that character. A negative count searches for subse- 748: quent occurrences. 749: sskkiipp--ccssii--sseeqquueennccee 750: Read enough characters to consume a multi-key sequence such as 751: those defined for keys like Home and End. Such sequences begin 752: with a Control Sequence Indicator (CSI), usually ESC-[. If this 753: sequence is bound to "\[", keys producing such sequences will 754: have no effect unless explicitly bound to a readline command, 755: instead of inserting stray characters into the editing buffer. 756: This is unbound by default, but usually bound to ESC-[. 757: iinnsseerrtt--ccoommmmeenntt ((MM--##)) 758: Without a numeric argument, the value of the readline ccoomm-- 759: mmeenntt--bbeeggiinn variable is inserted at the beginning of the current 760: line. If a numeric argument is supplied, this command acts as a 761: toggle: if the characters at the beginning of the line do not 762: match the value of ccoommmmeenntt--bbeeggiinn, the value is inserted, other- 763: wise the characters in ccoommmmeenntt--bbeeggiinn are deleted from the begin- 764: ning of the line. In either case, the line is accepted as if a 765: newline had been typed. The default value of ccoommmmeenntt--bbeeggiinn 766: makes the current line a shell comment. If a numeric argument 767: causes the comment character to be removed, the line will be 768: executed by the shell. 769: dduummpp--ffuunnccttiioonnss 770: Print all of the functions and their key bindings to the read- 771: line output stream. If a numeric argument is supplied, the out- 772: put is formatted in such a way that it can be made part of an 773: _i_n_p_u_t_r_c file. 774: dduummpp--vvaarriiaabblleess 775: Print all of the settable variables and their values to the 776: readline output stream. If a numeric argument is supplied, the 777: output is formatted in such a way that it can be made part of an 778: _i_n_p_u_t_r_c file. 779: dduummpp--mmaaccrrooss 780: Print all of the readline key sequences bound to macros and the 781: strings they output. If a numeric argument is supplied, the 782: output is formatted in such a way that it can be made part of an 783: _i_n_p_u_t_r_c file. 784: eemmaaccss--eeddiittiinngg--mmooddee ((CC--ee)) 785: When in vvii command mode, this causes a switch to eemmaaccss editing 786: mode. 787: vvii--eeddiittiinngg--mmooddee ((MM--CC--jj)) 788: When in eemmaaccss editing mode, this causes a switch to vvii editing 789: mode. 790: 791: DDEEFFAAUULLTT KKEEYY BBIINNDDIINNGGSS 792: The following is a list of the default emacs and vi bindings. Charac- 793: ters with the eighth bit set are written as M-<character>, and are 794: referred to as _m_e_t_a_f_i_e_d characters. The printable ASCII characters not 795: mentioned in the list of emacs standard bindings are bound to the 796: sseellff--iinnsseerrtt function, which just inserts the given character into the 797: input line. In vi insertion mode, all characters not specifically men- 798: tioned are bound to sseellff--iinnsseerrtt. Characters assigned to signal genera- 799: tion by _s_t_t_y(1) or the terminal driver, such as C-Z or C-C, retain that 800: function. Upper and lower case metafied characters are bound to the 801: same function in the emacs mode meta keymap. The remaining characters 802: are unbound, which causes readline to ring the bell (subject to the 803: setting of the bbeellll--ssttyyllee variable). 804: 805: EEmmaaccss MMooddee 806: Emacs Standard
