06:56 <dnkl> ovf: related? https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Editing-Characters.html. I assume REPRINT tells the tty driver to do some magi (hence it only works in canonical mode, not raw)

10:27 <ovf> dnkl: yes, thanks! i think libedit is supposed to handle that itself (as cooked mode makes no sense for a line editor), but for some reason gets confused and treats it as a normal ^r (history search backward).

10:28 <ovf> i had some more bizarre finds in libedit's source code, but apparently they all came in fairly recently and hadn't made their way to apple's version. but those things were definitely written on something heavy.
