Is "\EOF" really what your file says here? maybe \E isn't treated as escape, so bash is looking for a literal "E" to be followed by "OF", and then it will go to the end of the line. (Try that, typing "EOF", and see if the cursor jumps to the end of the line.) If it does, then remove that line from /etc/inputrc! -- #define X(x,y) x##y DUPS Secretary ; http://is2.dal.ca/~dups/ Peter Cordes ; e-mail: X([EMAIL PROTECTED] , dal.ca) "The gods confound the man who first found out how to distinguish the hours!
