There is a feature in termux (android) history command which when you use !371 to execute the command 371 in the command history it prints that command in the prompt instead of executing it, then you just press enter to execute it. I found it very useful because many times I want to execute a command that is in the history but with some modification, I’m using Konsole in my desktop PC and I couldn’t find an option to make such a thing. The only one I found is executing history -p !371, but that just print the command to stdout and not to the prompt itself.
EDIT: the answer is !371:p then up and the command 371 shows up in the prompt. Thanks Schizo!
not sure if it’s what you’re looking for but on my Konsole (I think it’s actually just a bash feature), Ctrl+R lets you search through your command history and easily pull up past commands. it’s called
reverse-i-searchif you wanna check it out.I was just told, but for the quick test I did I doesn’t seem to let me modified the command before executing it.
yeah I think you’re supposed to be able to but it seems borked for me too. my terminal kinda freaks out when I try to move the cursor to the right to edit the command
That’s another great option, thanks.
