    How to move around in bash - keybindings?

    In the BASH(1) manpage, the keybindings are described. However, these don't seem to be what FreeBSD is using. In particular, it shows: Well, M-f works on the command line, but it looks like M-b deletes the previous word, I just wanna move back a word and leave the command line intact like...
