Help,
I've just been given an account on a Unix box running
ESIX System 5.3.2 Rev C
{ Thats Sys V }
We are using the Korn shell around here, but our Unix wiz
is on vacation so I ask you for help.
I am trying to get my command history to work, under Korn, using
the emacs mode, but it does't work. ;-<
I've set all of the variables to what the man pages say, and
if I type a control p, I am supposed to get the last
item in the command history. No go, I just get something
like ^P not found.
Actually, none of the emacs commands work, they seem to be stuck
on the default vi commands, but for the moment the ^P
is all that I am really interested in.
What am I doing wrong?
Info:
EDITOR=emacs HISTSIZE=600 FCEDIT=emacs
set -o :
emacs on
ignoreeof on
interactive on
monitor on
all others off
Its really a pain as I've grown used to using the command history
at my school running BSD and Csh.
Tanx for you help,
