Option + Arrow no longer move cursor to previous/next word but delete char instead.

Thanks for filing an ! Please answer the questions below so I can help you.

Detailed steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. Type anything with multiple words
  2. try to move your cursor to previous word using option + left arrow 1bis. go back to start of the line 2bis. try to move to next word using option + right arrow

What happened: previous character got deleted bis: all line is deleted

What should have happened: move from word to word.

I use zsh with bindkey -v which was working fine before updating iterm.

I have those binds also :

  • bindkey "\e\e[D" backward-word
  • bindkey "\e\e[C" forward-word

Best Regards,
