    vi terminal bindings

    I'm using "set -o vi" in bash to use vi bindings.
    Is there a way to remap some other key to <Esc>, it's a real pain.
    .vimrc doesn't apply as it seems to be 'regular vi', I've tried .exrc, but it doesn't work.. Anyone? Thanks

    Re: vi terminal bindings

    You can do it in bash like this:
    Code:
    bind -m vi-insert [:vi-movement-mode
    This would bind it to the [ key.

    You could also rebind Caps Lock to Escape. This can be done in the keyboard layout manager (http://www.jveweb.net/en/archives/20...eweb_en_017_01), or with:
    Code:
    xmodmap -e "clear Lock" && xmodmap -e "keycode 66 = Escape"
