Thanks for the info regarding vi-mode.  I've made some changes so
that all the stuff that's done in the .inputrc can be done from the
shell as well.  I've added two flags to set: "+z" for vi-mode, and
"-s" for horizontal-scroll-mode.  For rebinding keys, I've added
the builtin "bind", which can handle both functions and macros (using
the "macro" keyword).  I've also changed vi-mode so that control
chars come out as ^X rather than C-X (vi does it this way, so I 
think bash should too in vi-mode).  Also, the builtin documentation
has been updated to reflect these changes.

I'd like to see these changes incorporated into the bash distribution.
If you'd like to use them, just send me a message, and I'll send you
the patches.
