vi key-binding in lftp (on Mac/Leopard)

by Kyle Skrinak on Nov.14, 2009, under Technology

I presume this is a fairly portable tip; but it is awesome, thatnks to the vi wiki.

If you put the following into your ~/.inputrc file:

set editing-mode vi
set keymap vi

You will then have vi keybindings in lftp (and apparently other programs that support readline editing)

Good-bye annoying emacs keyboard commands in lftp!
