Hi,
I've been  trying to set up my key bindings using the NeXT
csh (with editmode=emacs) so that I can use the arrow keys
for the previous history entry and the next history entry.
However, I can only get it to recognize a single escaped
key, whereas the arrows require a sequence such as:
ESC-O A (I tried "\eOA").  In this case it just maps to
ESC-O, ignoring the last character completely.  Does anyone
know of a way to map the arrow keys in csh on the NeXT?  Or
is this one of those minor technical impossibilities?
