8.4.8 Some Miscellaneous Commands
re-read-init-file (C-x C-r)
-
Read in the contents of the inputrc file, and incorporate
any bindings or variable assignments found there.
abort (C-g)
-
Abort the current editing command and
ring the terminal's bell (subject to the setting of
bell-style ).
do-uppercase-version (M-a, M-b, M-x, ...)
-
If the metafied character x is lowercase, run the command
that is bound to the corresponding uppercase character.
prefix-meta (ESC)
-
Metafy the next character typed. This is for keyboards
without a meta key. Typing 'ESC f' is equivalent to typing
M-f.
undo (C-_ or C-x C-u)
-
Incremental undo, separately remembered for each line.
revert-line (M-r)
-
Undo all changes made to this line. This is like executing the
undo
command enough times to get back to the beginning.
tilde-expand (M-&)
-
Perform tilde expansion on the current word.
set-mark (C-@)
-
Set the mark to the point. If a
numeric argument is supplied, the mark is set to that position.
exchange-point-and-mark (C-x C-x)
-
Swap the point with the mark. The current cursor position is set to
the saved position, and the old cursor position is saved as the mark.
character-search (C-])
-
A character is read and point is moved to the next occurrence of that
character. A negative count searches for previous occurrences.
character-search-backward (M-C-])
-
A character is read and point is moved to the previous occurrence
of that character. A negative count searches for subsequent
occurrences.
insert-comment (M-#)
-
Without a numeric argument, the value of the
comment-begin
variable is inserted at the beginning of the current line.
If a numeric argument is supplied, this command acts as a toggle: if
the characters at the beginning of the line do not match the value
of comment-begin , the value is inserted, otherwise
the characters in comment-begin are deleted from the beginning of
the line.
In either case, the line is accepted as if a newline had been typed.
The default value of comment-begin causes this command
to make the current line a shell comment.
If a numeric argument causes the comment character to be removed, the line
will be executed by the shell.
dump-functions ()
-
Print all of the functions and their key bindings to the
Readline output stream. If a numeric argument is supplied,
the output is formatted in such a way that it can be made part
of an inputrc file. This command is unbound by default.
dump-variables ()
-
Print all of the settable variables and their values to the
Readline output stream. If a numeric argument is supplied,
the output is formatted in such a way that it can be made part
of an inputrc file. This command is unbound by default.
dump-macros ()
-
Print all of the Readline key sequences bound to macros and the
strings they output. If a numeric argument is supplied,
the output is formatted in such a way that it can be made part
of an inputrc file. This command is unbound by default.
glob-complete-word (M-g)
-
The word before point is treated as a pattern for pathname expansion,
with an asterisk implicitly appended. This pattern is used to
generate a list of matching file names for possible completions.
glob-expand-word (C-x *)
-
The word before point is treated as a pattern for pathname expansion,
and the list of matching file names is inserted, replacing the word.
If a numeric argument is supplied, a '*' is appended before
pathname expansion.
glob-list-expansions (C-x g)
-
The list of expansions that would have been generated by
glob-expand-word is displayed, and the line is redrawn.
If a numeric argument is supplied, a '*' is appended before
pathname expansion.
display-shell-version (C-x C-v)
-
Display version information about the current instance of Bash.
shell-expand-line (M-C-e)
-

This performs alias and history expansion as well as all of the shell
word expansions (see section 3.5 Shell Expansions).
history-expand-line (M-^)
-
Perform history expansion on the current line.
magic-space ()
-
Perform history expansion on the current line and insert a space
(see section 9.3 History Expansion).
alias-expand-line ()
-

history-and-alias-expand-line ()
-
Perform history and alias expansion on the current line.
insert-last-argument (M-. or M-_)
-
A synonym for
yank-last-arg .
operate-and-get-next (C-o)
-

relative to the current line from the history for editing. Any
argument is ignored.
edit-and-execute-command (C-xC-e)

commands.
Bash attempts to invoke
$FCEDIT , $EDITOR , and emacs
as the editor, in that order.
