10.3: Assign arrow keys to history search in bash
Authored by: mithras on Oct 30, '03 01:58:11PM
I accomplished this with
"\e[A": history-search-backward
"\e[B": history-search-forward

in my .inputrc. I think that's essentially equivalent.

PS, don't forget to add these to your .inputrc while you're at it:
set show-all-if-ambiguous on
set completion-ignore-case on
