Perhaps I don't understand this 'bash' feature, but it doesn't seem
to work for me.
Start typing a command, press Ctrl-Up, and it finds the previous line
in the history that started like that.
Why not simply type Ctrl-R then the first few letters of a command (or
some letters in the middle of a command). Works great! Requires no
support from any terminal emulator...
Yes, obviously you can bind the history search to any key you like.
To do the same as above with rxvt:
"\eOa": history-search-backward
"\eOb": history-search-forward
Speaking of history, does anyone know why xterm and rxvt diverged so
much on modifier keycodes and why the xterm codes ended up being six
characters long?
