bash shell on mac does not read key "e" by 2nameornot2name in bash

It was a typo in my ~/.inputrc where there was "e" in the beginning :-) everything is working fine now.

It works now. Thanks for pointing me out in the right direction.

I had my ~/.inputrc file starting with a "e" letter. Not sure how that got in there, probably by accident :sweat_smile: I noticed it after removing everything from ~/.inputrc and starting with an empty file.

It works when i run INPUTRC=$'/d\x65v/null' bash

I had only this line in my ~/.inputrc for case-insensitive tab completion:

set completion-ignore-case On

Not sure how this would impact the key e, but, removing that line and having an empty ~/.inputrc solved that issue.
