I second this greatly! Too many people roll their own line editors and always mess up the readline (emacs) shortcuts.

I rolled my own and didn't even bother with emacs shortcuts (got vim ones though, as that's what I'm familiar with).

However I'm not adverse adding emacs shortcuts if anyone can recommend a good guide for which keys do what.

Bash shortcut guides get most of the useful ones. https://github.com/fliptheweb/bash-shortcuts-cheat-sheet
Useful link (thank you) but to be honest I was after a more complete list because nothing breaks usability more than something being familiar but not behaving quite the same exactly. But I'll stop being a lazy arse and Duck Duck Go the answer myself :)
