keyboard paste from clipboard into bash

[Halim, Salman]

from my .inputrc:

"\C-p": paste-from-clipboard

guess what hitting ctrl-p on the command-line does. . .  i do use bash
2.04b2, so that may make a difference.

regards,

salman.

I don't know if he cured the keyboard paste you want, but you might want
to
check out Paul Sokolovsky's Readline-2.0 native Mingw port at
http://www.is.lg.ua/~paul/devel/readline/ .
