I admit, though I love VI, and I have played with enabling VI-style keybindings in readline-enabled applications, it is just a little too freaky to have to remember to hit ESC on the command-line.
How many of the folks here are die-hard VI users to the point that they enable this?
Cheers,
Steven

Re: How many people use VI-style keybindings with readline (inc. BASH)?
Fri, December 14, 2007 - 4:49 PMI had the same problem as you: I found it really hard to manage insert and command mode on the prompt.

Tue, December 18, 2007 - 12:22 PMI find bash doesn't implement vi key-bindings properly/fully.
I FAR preferred "ksh" but that's died :-(
I do a "set -o vi" when I need to search my history, but I'm getting used to the other key-bindings, except: how do you delete to end of line in that mode?
