>Description:
The vi-mode command editing seems to ignore counts on the 's' and
'x' commands.
>How-To-Repeat:
[prompt] sh
$ set -o vi
$ foo
without hitting return, hit escape, and 'h'. the cursor will be on
the o. hit '2x' or '2s' and watch only one 'o' go away.
>Fix:
Don't know; presumably, use the count on these things. It doesn't
barf on the 2, so it must be doing *something* with it.
