-
- <p>While the Readline library does not have a full set of <code>vi</code>
- editing functions, it does contain enough to allow simple editing
- of the line. The Readline <code>vi</code> mode behaves as specified in
- the <small>POSIX</small> standard.
- </p>
- <p>In order to switch interactively between <code>emacs</code> and <code>vi</code>
- editing modes, use the command <kbd>M-C-j</kbd> (bound to emacs-editing-mode
- when in <code>vi</code> mode and to vi-editing-mode in <code>emacs</code> mode).
- The Readline default is <code>emacs</code> mode.
- </p>
- <p>When you enter a line in <code>vi</code> mode, you are already placed in
- ‘insertion’ mode, as if you had typed an ‘<samp>i</samp>’. Pressing <tt class="key">ESC</tt>
- switches you into ‘command’ mode, where you can edit the text of the
- line with the standard <code>vi</code> movement keys, move to previous
- history lines with ‘<samp>k</samp>’ and subsequent lines with ‘<samp>j</samp>’, and
- so forth.
