I don't know, what bind does. It has no manpage. But, probably, /etc/inputrc should be uses instead of ~/.inputrc. Then i'ts loaded when you log out and log in again. > However, even with NOT running the above command, open a new xterm > from that xterm, then the new xterm (the third, as I was editing the > files in the first), DOES work (for C-Left and C-Right). > > I am not yet able to test logging out and logging back in or reboot - > I'm guessing that will also do the trick, however for the time being, > I usually work in a screen session, and that is now working > regardless. Logging out and back in is probably what needs to be done. ~/.Xresources and /etc/inputrc should then be reloaded automatically. > It seems xrdb -load and bind are not working as advertised in their > respective manuals.
