Re: Bash's vi command line editing mode

I played with the backupcopy and backup settings:

originally, they were set to:
nobackup
nowritebackup
backupcopy=no

I tried enabling some/all of them, but still no luck.

I then just removed my .vimrc, which made the command execute. Then I went with a good old trial and error: comment out my entire .vimrc and enable section after section. Luckily, it was already the 2nd paragraph that broke the execution: it is my pathogen settings:

filetype off
silent! call pathogen#runtime_append_all_bundles()
silent! call pathogen#helptags()
filetype plugin indent on

I tried commenting in/out just individual lines, but they all broke it. After some more fiddling around, I came up with this workaround, which looks nasty (and I'm not happy about it) but it works:

if expand('%:t') =~?'bash-fc-\d\+'
setfiletype sh
else
filetype off
silent! call pathogen#runtime_append_all_bundles()
silent! call pathogen#helptags()
filetype plugin indent on
endif

Basically: when I'm editing commands, I prevent pathogen from running (which means none of my plugins get loaded). If somebody has a better way or knows what I need to do to pathogen to make it work, please let me know!

In the meantime, I hope this helps other people in my position.
