Cmder: Up/down key (bash history) not working in Docker on Cmder

[skrysmanski]

Cmder does not forward the up and down key to Docker containers running under Docker for Windows. Not sure whether this is actually a ConEmu or CLink issue - but since I'm using Cmder I'm reporting it here.

So, here are the steps to reproduce the problem:

1. Install Docker for Windows
2. Run docker run -ti --rm ubuntu
3. (Now inside the Docker container) type a command, like ls.
4. Hit the _up_ key. This would normally put ls back on the prompt but just nothing happens.

I also tried using Cmder with PowerShell - same problem.

Doing the steps above directly in cmd or powershell works without a problem.

I'm running:

• Windows 10 (not sure about the anniversary update)
• Cmder: 1.3.1
• ConEmu: 160914 stable
• Docker for Windows: 1.12.1

It looks like Docker 1.12.2 will solve this:

I agree that Docker 1.12.2 solves this for arrow keys in bash. However, I am seeing that arrow keys are still broken when using vi/nano.

Up/down key didn't work in Ubuntu on Windows 10 either.

Any fix to up/down not working in Ubuntu for Win 10?
