In aid of helping others along this path, here's a crib sheet I've found for readline shortcuts. I've been meaning to become more efficient in using bash and this might just be the push I need. http://www.bigsmoke.us/readline/shortcuts


Thanks. That's an excellent reference. I've been pointing people towards the relevant section in the readline or bash manuals, but this is much better.


I've honestly tried to use the man pages for bash before, they are unarguably complete but unfortunately difficult to get started with. The chances of me knowing ahead of time to either search first for "readline" followed "Commands for Moving" or read the full man page until I get to line 2957 is slim.


I have one cheat sheet at my desk, and it is this one.
