That's true. Itried "stty raw". Then I can get (i-search)`': but it does not accept any key entry. My another solution is to define ~/.inpurtc as: M-s: forward-search-history M-r: reverse-search-history This makes Alt-R and original Ctrl-R to initiate reverse-search-history but Alt-S initiate forward-search-history menu but it does not work: (i-search)`': is displayed after Alt-S in normal console but it does not accept any key entry. Looks like bug in READLINE. (I guess nobody in same mind botherd Ctrl-S for incremental search. I was happy with Ctrl-R anyway ...)
