Hi Herculano,

This is a bit of a tough one, and depends on how you have readline
configured (ie. emacs or vi mode). If you add the following to
the end of your /etc/inputrc file you should get what you want:

$if mode=vi
“C-0-“: digit-argument
TAB: menu-complete
“e[Z”: “C-0-t”
$else
TAB: menu-complete
“e[Z”: “M–1t”
$endif

“man readline” has all the details about why this works.

HTH,
Sean

And this works fine.

Code:
$if mode=vi
"C-0-": digit-argument
TAB: menu-complete
"e[Z": "C-0-t"
$else
TAB: menu-complete
"e[Z": "M--1t"
$endif

But what I want is to reverse this. So I want that tab does reverse menu completion and shift tab does normal menu completion.

Can anyone help me with this? Thanks

A.M. Best Downgrades Issuer Credit Rating of National Lloyds Insurance Company

A.M. Best Downgrades Issuer Credit Rating of National Lloyds Insurance Company

OLDWICK, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– A.M. Best Co. has downgraded the issuer credit rating (ICR) to “a” from “a+” and affirmed the financial strength rating (FSR) of A (Excellent) of National Lloyds Insurance Company (National Lloyds).

Additionally, A.M. Best has affirmed the FSR of A (Excellent) and ICR of “a” of National Lloyds‘ affiliate, American Summit Insurance Company (American Summit). The outlook for all ratings is stable. All companies are domiciled in Waco, TX, unless otherwise specified.

Concurrently, A.M. Best has withdrawn the ICR of “bbb+” of Hilltop Holdings Inc. (HTH) (headquartered in Dallas, TX) (NYS: HTH) . National Lloyds and American Summit are subsidiaries of their ultimate parent, HTH.

The downgrading of National Lloyds‘ ICR reflects its adverse operating results in recent years primarily due to unfavorable underwriting performance. The deterioration in National Lloyds‘ underwriting performance was driven by increased weather-related losses in recent years, especially wind and hail events that occurred in the spring of 2012 in Texas. In response, management has increased rates, tightened policy coverage and is non-renewing and de-emphasizing unprofitable products and geographical regions that are more catastrophe-prone.

These negative rating actions are partially offset by National Lloyds‘ adequate risk-adjusted capitalization, conservative investment strategy and local market expertise within its niche market of personal property insurance. In addition, National Lloyds benefits from the financial flexibility of its immediate parent holding company, NLASCO Inc., which was evidenced in 2012 by its explicit support in the form of a capital contribution to offset underwriting losses.

In future rating cycles, negative rating actions could occur if National Lloyds‘ underwriting performance continues to deteriorate and/or there is a reduction in its overall risk-adjusted capitalization.

The ratings of American Summit recognize its solid risk-adjusted capitalization, conservative investment strategy and generally favorable operating performance. Over the last five years, American Summit has reported positive net income earnings driven by net underwriting gains, favorable other income and consistent net investment gains.

These positive rating factors are partially offset by American Summit‘s limited product offerings as primarily a provider of insurance for the mobile home market. In addition, American Summit‘s overall performance is susceptible to the frequency and severity of localized storm activity as the majority of its business is produced in Arizona. This was largely evidenced in 2011, as American Summit reported a sizeable year-end underwriting loss driven by significant weather-related losses in Arizona. American Summit maintains a prudent …read more
