To answer my own question, it appears to be generating the readline insert-comment event, which is normally M-#, which is mapped to Alt-# under windows, which Ctrl-V reveals is equivalent to ^[#, and indeed the sequence ESC-# also works. Hmm, maybe it's terminfo rather than readline settings. There's nothing abnormal in my .inputrc. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
