I've to use KSH at work, hate it! I like BASH more but I have no choice but to use KSH cause of a few tools written explicitly for it. :( One shortcut I find myself using again and again is ESC + . (dot). It repeats the last argument of the last command. But this is an interactive mode shortcut. There's one more shortcut for the same which we can use in BASH scripts, but I can't recollect now. Hi Eric,

Thanks for sharing the bash shortcuts. I’ve to use KSH at work, hate it! I like BASH more but I have no choice but to use KSH cause of a few tools written explicitly for it. :(

One shortcut I find myself using again and again is ESC + . (dot). It repeats the last argument of the last command. But this is an interactive mode shortcut. There’s one more shortcut for the same which we can use in BASH scripts, but I can’t recollect now.

I am using vi mode myself (with a few shortcuts taken from emacs mode, like ctrl-a, ctrl-e, and a few others). Vi mode can be set with: <code>set -o vi</code> And emacs mode can be set with: <code>set -o emacs</code> The default is Emacs editing mode!

Vi mode can be set with:
set -o vi

And emacs mode can be set with:
set -o emacs

I just resolved myself to two things: 1) Your blog has too much useful stuff on it and 2) I'm going to just have to take a few hours and go through as much as I can. What is bash's default editing mode? Argh.

I don't know if you found this on my blog, but I wrote two articles on keyboard shortcuts in bash. The first article you link to has like 5% of all the predefined shortcuts. Bash actually has two editing modes - vi and emacs - for both kinds of programmers. I also created cheat sheets (pdf, txt and tex) for both modes: <a href="http://www.catonmat.net/blog/bash-vi-editing-mode-cheat-sheet/" rel="nofollow">Vi Editing Mode in Bash</a> <a href="http://www.catonmat.net/blog/bash-emacs-editing-mode-cheat-sheet/" rel="nofollow">Emacs Editing Mode in Bash</a> Peteris Hey Eric.
