Jump a word on MAC OS X
Raw
gistfile1.txt
I recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion and Xcode 4.1, and word jumping stopped working in both Terminal and iTerm2. Did the mappings change?
This is with and without a homebrew installation of readline.
My .inputrc looks like this:
"\e[1;5D": backward-word
"\e[1;5C": forward-word
For standard terminal it should go:
# word jump on SHIFT left/right arrows
"\e[1;2D": backward-word
"\e[1;2C": forward-word
