Having read the FAQ and the define_key section of the Wave manual (V 4.20): 1) Is there any way in pv-wave to increase the number of commands in the command history? I tried changing !edit_input to 50 in my startup file as suggested for IDL, but that didn't seem to work. 2) Using define_key I can succesfully map escape sequences to functions or other strings. I have had no luck mapping control characters or meta-characters (even though they both get read by wave into the line buffer). The documentation is a bit vague on whether or not I can do this, so I'm still not sure that I can't. Any wizards out there who can striaghten me out? Thanks. Jim Diamond zsd@axe.drea.dnd.ca
