[IPython-dev] windows readline vi mode

[Jörgen Stenarson]

Hi Michael,

I'm about to commit some changes to the modes directory. Yesterday I did 
some hacking to start integration of your vi patch. So far I can type 
text, and some of the deletion commands works but there is a lot of work 
left. As you suggest I have also started to move common things to a 
separate file. I will commit this in an hour or so (I'll post to let you 
know when it's done).
