Details:

Using the readline feature to search history (Ctr+R), pressing up and down to
move between the logs work fine. However, after finding the desired line,
using the left or right arrow to move in that line, inserts the [C or [D
characters forcing to remove them manually. This does not happen in the
shell.

Here's how to reproduce:

1. press Ctr+R to start searching the log
2. press left arrow to move on that line
3. the characters "[D" will be inserted

If the right arrow is pressed, "[C" is inserted instead.
