Do you have CRLF line endings on your ~/.inputrc? That would explain
failures. To fix it, run 'd2u ~/.inputrc'. Other than that, it works
for me, so I'm not sure why you're having problems.
A great suggestion. I also thought of two other things:
- If the INPUTRC environment variable is set, you may be reading
something different from what you think
- How and whether a terminal generates meta- keys will clearly affect
the specific bindings you mentioned. So you may need to dig into
the specific terminal and into stty settings for the terminal
driver
