zsh keybindings: home, end, ctrl-left etc

Kropotkin · 08-07-2005, 08:02 PM

How can one map the home, end, ctrl-left, etc keys in zsh? In the version installed with Fedora, these keys are not active. In the zsh FAQ, it gives instructions for the regular arrow keys:

Code:

bindkey "$(echotc kl)" backward-char 
bindkey "$(echotc kr)" forward-char 
bindkey "$(echotc ku)" up-line-or-history 
bindkey "$(echotc kd)" down-line-or-history

So it appears to be just a matter of getting the correct codes generated by the above-mentioned keys. Anyone know how to do it?

TIA

Oh this is not encouraging.
