I used to be able to jump to previous word and jump to next word by doing ctrl-left and ctrl-right respectively...I have been unable to get this working again in RedHat 9.

I understand the default is esc-b and esc-f...

How do I get it to function the way it used to.

Thanks.


Dean.

Default it is M-f to move forward and M-b to move backwards one word at a time.
