bapt requested review of this revision.Aug 28 2021, 1:01 PM

OK, but perhaps this fix should be in libedit instead. The same issue can be seen in other libedit clients such as ftp(1).

Not tested but looks good :)

This revision is now accepted and ready to land.Aug 28 2021, 1:23 PM

OK, but perhaps this fix should be in libedit instead. The same issue can be seen in other libedit clients such as ftp(1).

my plan is to first commit in sh(1) and have behaving correctly, then I will work on fixing libedit. (and discuss with upstream) for sure I will drop those lines from sh(1) once they are in libedit for long enough.

By the way, since this is in histedit(), the binding won't survive bind -e which ultimately does keymacro_reset() and the binding from histedit() never get the chance to be restored. I think bindcmd() should call histedit() somewhere near the INTON. histedit() should be clever enough to do only the if (el) { part that is expanded in this patch.

It seems this change has been made in libedit already. So perhaps instead of adding ^W we could remove ^R and update libedit.

And make bindcmd() call histedit():

    sh: reset sh bindings on bind -e, bind -v

    Until this change, any bindings set in histedit() were lost on calls to
    bindcmd().

    Only bind -e and bind -v call libedit's keymacro_reset(). Currently you
    cannot fool libedit/map.c:map_bind() by trying something like bind -le
    as when p[0] == '-', it does a switch statement on p[1].
