Yes, obviously you can bind the history search to any key you like.
To do the same as above with rxvt:
"\eOa": history-search-backward
"\eOb": history-search-forward
Speaking of history, does anyone know why xterm and rxvt diverged so
much on modifier keycodes and why the xterm codes ended up being six
characters long?
