20 <dl>
22 <br><dt><code>re-read-init-file (C-x C-r)</code>
23 <dd>Read in the contents of the <var>inputrc</var> file, and incorporate
24 any bindings or variable assignments found there.
26 <br><dt><code>abort (C-g)</code>
27 <dd>Abort the current editing command and
28 ring the terminal's bell (subject to the setting of
29 <code>bell-style</code>).
31 <br><dt><code>do-uppercase-version (M-a, M-b, M-</code><var>x</var><code>, ...)</code>
32 <dd>If the metafied character <var>x</var> is lowercase, run the command
33 that is bound to the corresponding uppercase character.
35 <br><dt><code>prefix-meta (&lt;ESC&gt;)</code>
36 <dd>Metafy the next character typed. This is for keyboards
37 without a meta key. Typing <code>&lt;ESC&gt; f</code> is equivalent to typing
38 <kbd>M-f</kbd>.
40 <br><dt><code>undo (C-_ or C-x C-u)</code>
41 <dd>Incremental undo, separately remembered for each line.
43 <br><dt><code>revert-line (M-r)</code>
44 <dd>Undo all changes made to this line. This is like executing the <code>undo</code>
45 command enough times to get back to the beginning.
47 <br><dt><code>tilde-expand (M-~)</code>
48 <dd>Perform tilde expansion on the current word.
50 <br><dt><code>set-mark (C-@)</code>
51 <dd>Set the mark to the point. If a
52 numeric argument is supplied, the mark is set to that position.
54 <br><dt><code>exchange-point-and-mark (C-x C-x)</code>
55 <dd>Swap the point with the mark. The current cursor position is set to
56 the saved position, and the old cursor position is saved as the mark.
58 <br><dt><code>character-search (C-])</code>
59 <dd>A character is read and point is moved to the next occurrence of that
60 character. A negative count searches for previous occurrences.
62 <br><dt><code>character-search-backward (M-C-])</code>
63 <dd>A character is read and point is moved to the previous occurrence
64 of that character. A negative count searches for subsequent
65 occurrences.
67 <br><dt><code>insert-comment (M-#)</code>
68 <dd>The value of the <code>comment-begin</code>
69 variable is inserted at the beginning of the current line,
70 and the line is accepted as if a newline had been typed.
72 <br><dt><code>dump-functions ()</code>
73 <dd>Print all of the functions and their key bindings to the
74 Readline output stream. If a numeric argument is supplied,
75 the output is formatted in such a way that it can be made part
76 of an <var>inputrc</var> file. This command is unbound by default.
78 <br><dt><code>dump-variables ()</code>
79 <dd>Print all of the settable variables and their values to the
80 Readline output stream. If a numeric argument is supplied,
81 the output is formatted in such a way that it can be made part
82 of an <var>inputrc</var> file. This command is unbound by default.
84 <br><dt><code>dump-macros ()</code>
85 <dd>Print all of the Readline key sequences bound to macros and the
86 strings they output. If a numeric argument is supplied,
87 the output is formatted in such a way that it can be made part
88 of an <var>inputrc</var> file. This command is unbound by default.
