Powershell: Simple keyboard editing commands don't work in in PowerShell Integrated Console

[jagdishrajan]

Steps to reproduce & Expected behavior

In the command line Ctrl+Left Arrow should jump a word to the left. Ctrl+Shift+Left Arrow should select the word to the left. None of this seems to work.

# Actual behavior

The terminal command line just moves the cursor left or right by one character, no matter what command is used.

@jagdishrajan Thanks for your report!

The repo is for PowerShell Core version. For Windows PowerShell please report to UserVoice site.

I can not reproduce the issue PowerShell Core and Windows PowerShell so please share more information about your environment.

By Ingegrated Console do you mean the VS Code integrated console? That is an entirely separate project, maintained in the vscode-powershell repo. The limitations of the integrated console there are well-known, and are well on the way to being rectified. I believe prototype versions of the extension are available from the repo and/or their AppVeyor build artifacts which _do_ include PSReadLine support and thus have these issues largely resolved.

Sorry, I should have created this in vscode-powershell repo. Closing this issue as it does not pertain to PowerShell console v6.
