GNU Info (screen.info)HistoryHistory ======= - Command: history (`C-a {') Usually users work with a shell that allows easy access to previous commands. For example, `csh' has the command `!!' to repeat the last command executed. `screen' provides a primitive way of recalling "the command that started ...": You just type the first letter of that command, then hit `C-a {' and `screen' tries to find a previous line that matches with the prompt character to the left of the cursor. This line is pasted into this window's input queue. Thus you have a crude command history (made up by the visible window and its scrollback buffer). automatically generated by info2www version 1.2.2.9 |
