So to put a CTRL+R in you'd type: CTRL+Q CTRL+V CTRL+R Same goes for tabs (CTRL+Q CTRL+V TAB), which is what I usually use it for. I don't know abou tcsh, zsh, ksh, or the other shells though. -- George Greer greerga@circlemud.org -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | FAQ: http://qsilver.queensu.ca/~fletchra/Circle/list-faq.html | | Archives: http://post.queensu.ca/listserv/wwwarch/circle.html | +---------------------------------------------------------------+
