All;
I use aterm in Window maker for my terminals. I like to use the Vi sequences when I am editing on the command line.
This works when I am in a virtual terminal thanks to a line in /etc/profile as follows:
set -o vi
When I use 'aterm,' though, it's like the terminal completely spaces off /etc/profile.
The 'set -o vi' line in /etc/profile is totaly independent of any if statements, eg:
if [[ $TERM = aterm ]]
blow_off_profile_settings();
fi
