[Bug]: Bash Shell alt/option+b and other shell shortcuts not working in MacOS

[smetroid]

Current Behavior

Hello,

I have a questions regarding bash shortcuts in a MacOS platform, when I hit alt+b, it enters a ∫ instead of moving the cursor back one word. I've seen this behavior in VS Code as well, the relation between between the two I believe that they are both projects created with Electon.

Expected Behavior

In a bash shell alt+b should send the cursor back one word

Steps To Reproduce

1. open up a terminal
2. add a sentence to the terminal eg: this is only a test
3. press alt+b
4. if cursor is at the end of test, after pressing alt+b the cursor should now be in between a and test

• I'm interested in fixing this myself but don't know where to start
• I would like to fix and I have a solution
• I don't have time to fix this right now, but maybe later

In VSCode I had to enable this to get alt/option+b working properly again

Not sure if this is just related to my setup, I do have an external keyboard, but the keyboard layout that I have should be the same as a mac.
