Re: RXVT doesn't recognize ALT + Cursor keys

As vi user I'm not a real emacs person. I'm using the cursor keys a lot in tcsh, especially to scroll through the history, so it's quite helpful to do all moving using the cursor keys in tcsh, imho.
I understand, however even as a vi user you use the "j" and "k" keys for up and down movement, the "h" and "l" keys for left and right movement and the "w" for word forward forward, "b" for word back no? I've always heard that the reason for that is to more efficiently do movement while leaving your fingers on the "home row". If that's true then why then reorient your hands off home row to do word movement just for the command line? Just something to think about...
