Looking for tips on how to enable basic line editing for sqlplus (outside of using vi, emacs, etc...)
Would like to ...
- Using backspace key, erase char to the left of the cursor
- Using left and right arrow keys, move the cursor to the left/right inside the current line
- Use insert mode (opt to overstrike would be nice too)
- Use up arrow and down arrow to get previous/next commands entered from a historical list of entered commands.
This to be enables in UNIX type systems running SQLPLUS.
So far, I'ev been able to do only the first using...
stty erase "^?"
Any ideas on how to enable the others?
