[macOS] In Macos, "option+delete" not able to delete previous word about ble.sh HOT 6 CLOSED

What is your terminal? It depends on the terminal control sequence that your terminal sends when you press "option+delete", but it would probably be \x1b\x7F (which is translated to M-C-?). The default keybinding in ble.sh for M-C-? is different from that in Readline. In ble.sh, The widget copy-backward-sword is bound to M-C-? and similar key combinations. It is described in Manual §4.4.

To get a similar effect, you can use C-w instead of M-C-?.

If you would like to use "option+delete" (such a M-C-? or M-DEL depending on the terminal) to delete the previous word, you can change the keybinding using ble-bind.

# blerc

# The key combination depends on the terminal, but you can bind it to all
ble-bind -f 'M-C-?' 'kill-backward-uword'
ble-bind -f 'M-DEL' 'kill-backward-uword'
ble-bind -f 'M-C-h' 'kill-backward-uword'
ble-bind -f 'M-BS' 'kill-backward-uword'

For the detailed behavior of determining the word boundaries, you might consider other types of words. Please read Manual §4.4.

I am also getting stty: 'standard input': unable to perform all requested operations on every command.

This is an independent issue.

• Q1: Is the error message printed after the command or before the command? Or is it printed both before and after the command? By "before/after the command", I mean the following places:

$ echo hello # This is an example command
<-- (Before the command)
hello
<-- (After the command)

• Q2: Could you provide the results of the following commands?

$ declare -p _ble_term_stty_flags_{enter,leave}
$ type ble/bin/stty

from ble.sh.

In any terminal (iterm, warp, vscode integrated terminal) in my macos, I see similar behaviour (option + del) not working.
That stty is printed before running the command.

from ble.sh.

Thanks for the information. Could you provide an answer to Q2 in my previous reply?

@syuraj Could you provide an answer to Q2 in #380 (comment)?

no, I deleted this sh*t

It's fine that you stopped using ble.sh and are not willing to continue the discussion, but I'd have appreciated it if you could have informed us of it earlier instead of ignoring the reply for one month and suddenly insulting the project. Also, we are not forcing you to use ble.sh. I recommend you complain about it to the one who forced you to use ble.sh with a polite attitude. Thank you for raising the issue anyway.
