Editor commands (+) `bindkey' lists key bindings and `bindkey -l' lists and briefly describes editor commands. Only new or especially interesting editor commands are described here. See emacs(1) and vi(1) for descriptions of each editor's key bindings.
complete-word-fwd (not bound) Replaces the current word with the first word in the list of possible completions. May be repeated to step down through the list. At the end of the list, beeps and reverts to the incomplete word.
expand-history (M-space) Expands history substitutions in the current word. See History substitution. See also magic-space, toggle-literal-history and the autoexpand shell variable.
expand-variables (^X-$) Expands the variable to the left of the cursor. See Variable substitution.
history-search-backward (M-p, M-P) Searches backwards through the history list for a command beginning with the current contents of the input buffer up to the cursor and copies it into the input buffer. The search string may be a glob-pattern (see Filename substitution) contain- ing `*', `?', `[]' or `{}'. up-history and down- history will proceed from the appropriate point in the history list. Emacs mode only. See also his- tory-search-forward and i-search-back.
insert-last-word (M-_) Inserts the last word of the previous input line (`!$') into the input buffer. See also copy-prev- word.
spell-line (M-$) Attempts to correct the spelling of each word in the input buffer, like spell-word, but ignores words whose first character is one of `-', `!', `^' or `%', or which contain `\', `*' or `?', to avoid problems with switches, substitutions and the like. See Spelling correction.
spell-word (M-s, M-S) Attempts to correct the spelling of the current word as described under Spelling correction. Checks each component of a word which appears to be a pathname.
toggle-literal-history (M-r, M-R) Expands or `unexpands' history substitutions in the input buffer. See also expand-history and the autoexpand shell variable.
which-command (M-?) Does a which (see the description of the builtin command) on the first word of the input buffer.
