Re: readline behaves differently in R than in bash

I "set editing-mode vi" in ~/.inputrc.  In bash, it responds as

It does not do this in R; instead, that series of keystrokes simply
causes the next two keystrokes to be consumed without any effect.  I
guess it would be wrong to assume that R uses the same readline
implementation as bash?  Is there anything I can set to get the
expected behaviour?

    64-bit Cygwin DLL version 1.7.28
    R version 3.0.1-1


it works fine for me.

$ uname -svr
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW 1.7.35(0.287/5/3) 2015-03-04 12:07

$ R --version
R version 3.1.3 (2015-03-09) -- "Smooth Sidewalk"

Marco
