I tried ESC v in bash, and to my surprise, the command-line was opened
in Vim as a file in /tmp/ with a name starting with "bash-fc-". My
.vimrc had been run, and in particular my colorscheme was set. After :wq
or even after :q! bash tried to execute the command (and complained,
because it was a nonsense command). However, the command which bash
tried to execute was the *unmodified* command-line, not the result of
any edits.
The following options (q.v.) set by my vimrc may be relevant:
nobackup
writebackup
backupcopy=auto
Indeed, setting 'backupcopy' to "no" on entry into this Vim editor made
edits to the command-line relevant (so that, e.g., after prefixing # to
the line bash treated it as a comment and did not complain).
Another thing that I notice is that on return from this Vim commnd-line
editor, Bash finds itself (apparently) in vim-like "normal mode" so that
letters typed at the keyboard in bash seem to have no effect until one
of them is a or i. Then bash "starts working again".
Best regards,
Tony.
