This section describes Readline commands that may be bound to key
sequences.
You can list your key bindings by executing
bind -P or, for a more terse format, suitable for an
inputrc file, bind -p. (See Bash Builtins.)
Command names without an accompanying key sequence are unbound by default.
In the following descriptions, point refers to the current cursor
position, and mark refers to a cursor position saved by the
set-mark command.
The text between the point and mark is referred to as the region.
