This is exactly the behaviour that drives me screaming from bash. Here's why: I do most of my work over an IPSec tunnel between endpoints 3000 miles apart. Interactive performance tends to be slow, and I'm a sucky typist, even after 20 years of computer use. For me, this combination of bad interactive performance and sucky typing is fine in tcsh, but annoying in bash. Ok i DO hear that loudly, that is the exact area where it does need a nice overhaul, i myself am non gui user, so have to type everything, this area could be improved alittle, however, that would also be destroying what people for many years have been used to, i think maybe some pooling of ideas just for 'users' rather than looking at the root section and explaining root atall, (perhaps that should stay custom?). Its a very tricky area for me , so i roll with the punches, and type harder,sure its cost me a shitload of time, but it did o to the people who made the O/S i am using.
