Thanks for this. I switched my input mode to VI and was greatly missing using Ctrl-L to clear the screen when in input mode. I hadn't known about the inputrc before. Adding this line below your "\C-p" line fixed that for me: "\C-l": clear-screen

If I copy a passage of text from one document and paste it into another, I generally want it to look like it belongs…
I think implementing "obvious intentional styling" is an AI problem. Suppose you copy a header, click in a normal paragraph, and paste. Keep styling information? Case 2: copy styled text from Keynote, and paste. Keep styling? Maybe, the logic in a word processor should be to keep character styling, but not paragraph styling, but I think there will be many edge cases (for example, the user might be using the word proc…
