remapping Cygwin 'bash' readline functions to PC keys

[Randall R Schulz]

Hi,

Jeez, guys, what's the problem:

% od -c
[ Press F1 through F12 followed by two CTRL-Ds: ]

0000000 033   [   [   A 033   [   [   B 033   [   [   C 033   [   [   D
0000020 033   [   [   E 033   [   1   7   ~ 033   [   1   8   ~ 033   [
0000040   1   9   ~ 033   [   2   0   ~ 033   [   2   1   ~ 033   [   2
0000060   3   ~ 033   [   2   4   ~
0000067


% od -c
[ Press Insert, Home, Page Up, Delete, End, Page Down followed by two 
CTRL-Ds: ]

0000000 033   [   2   ~ 033   [   1   ~ 033   [   5   ~ 033   [   3   ~
0000020 033   [   4   ~ 033   [   6   ~
0000030
