of times. +.Pp +When talking about a character string from a left character to a +right character, the left character is included in the string, while +the right character is not included. +.Pp +If an editor command causes an error, the input character is discarded, +no action occurs, and the terminal bell is rung. +In case of a non-fatal error, the terminal bell is also rung, +but the editor

ed-delete-next-char Pq vi command: x +Delete the character at the cursor position. +With an argument, delete that number of characters. +In emacs mode, it is an error if the cursor is at the end of the +edit buffer. +In vi mode, the last character in the edit buffer is deleted in +that case, and it is an error if the buffer is empty. +.It Ic ed-delete-prev-char Pq vi command: X, Ctrl-H, BS, Ctrl-?, DEL +Delete the character to the left of the cursor position. +With an argument, delete that number of characters. +It is an error if the cursor is at the beginning of the edit buffer. +.It Ic

more lines than are available. +.It Ic ed-next-line Pq not bound by default +Move the cursor down one line. +With an argument, move down by that number of lines. +It is an error if the edit buffer does not contain enough newline +characters to the right of the cursor position. +.It Ic ed-prev-char Pq vi command: h; emacs: Ctrl-B +Move the cursor one character position to the left. +With an

the editor command +.Ic ed-sequence-lead-in , +.Nm +attempts to call a macro. +If the input character by itself forms the name of a macro, that +macro is executed. +Otherwise, additional input characters are read until the string +read forms the name of a macro, in which case that macro is executed, +or until the string read matches the beginning of none of the existing +macro names, in which case the string including the final, mismatching +character is discarded and the terminal bell is rung. +.Pp +There are two kinds of macros. +Command macros execute a single editor command. +Keyboard macros return a string of characters that is appended +as a new line to the +.Sx Input Queue . +.Pp +The following command macros are defined by default in vi command +mode and in emacs mode: +.Bl -column -offset indent "Esc O A, Esc O A" "em-exchange-mark" +.It Esc \&[ A, Esc O A Ta Ic ed-prev-history +.It Esc \&[ B, Esc O B Ta Ic ed-next-history +.It Esc \&[ C, Esc O C Ta Ic ed-next-char +.It Esc \&[ D, Esc O D Ta Ic ed-prev-char +.It Esc \&[ F, Esc O F Ta Ic ed-move-to-end +.It Esc \&[ H, Esc O H Ta Ic ed-move-to-beg +.El +.Pp +In vi command mode, they are also defined by default without the +initial escape character. +.Pp +In addition, the +.Nm +library tries to bind the strings generated by the arrow keys +as reported by the +.Xr terminfo 5 +database to these editor commands, unless that would clobber +user settings. +.Pp +In emacs mode, the two-character string +.Dq Ctrl-X Ctrl-X +is bound to the +.Ic em-exchange-mark +editor command. +.Ss Input Queue +The +.Nm +library maintains an input queue operated in FIFO mode. +Whenever it needs an input character, it takes the first character +from the first line of the input queue. +When the queue is empty, it reads from the terminal. +.Pp +A line can be appended to the end of the input queue in several ways: +.Bl -dash -offset indent +.It +By calling one of the keyboard +.Sx Macros . +.It +By calling the editor command +.Ic vi-redo . +.It +By calling the editor command +.Ic vi-alias . +.It +By pressing a key in emacs incremental search mode that doesn't +have a special meaning in that mode but returns to normal emacs +mode. +.It +If an application program directly calls the functions +.Xr el_push 3 +or +.Xr el_wpush 3 , +it can provide additional, program-specific ways +of appending to the input queue. +.El +.Sh SEE ALSO +.Xr mg 1 , +.Xr vi 1 , +.Xr editline 3 , +.Xr el_wgets 3 , +.Xr el_wpush 3 , +.Xr el_wset 3 , +.Xr editrc 5 +.Sh HISTORY +This manual page first appeared in +.Ox
