I have found quite often i have long cmdlines ...

:~$ while X in `<cmd> | sed` ........... quite long .... 

what would be nice is if I could navigate the cmd line quickly.

This could be done by like holding alt-shift (or something) and using the mouse... moving left/right moves the cursor in the console (but up/down should be ignored (go up 1 pixel then your at the end of the previous line ... that would shyte me to tears))

essentially, i figure all it would have to do is emulate the <- / -> buttons when the "modifier" is pressed.

Wot ye say?
