You don't mean just using the cursor up and down arrows to step through what was last command line typed, one command line at a time? e.g. If the last three command lines I'd typed had been "cd /tmp" then "ls" then "touch something", cursoring up would show those command lines again, one at a time, at the current prompt, and I could press enter to re-issue that command (or edit it, first), -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.1-41.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5. Today, it's FC7. Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
