Lines: 14 I like the 'csh' history mechanism also, but I have one problem with it (but I don't think it's easily fixable). The lab I work in is air-conditioned (aren't they all) and always very cold. When I've been working for a long time, my coordination suffers from the cold. When that happens, I tend to miss the key and hit instead which discards all queued input on the line. This is really frustrating because the line was never executed, and isn't put into the history list, so I can't redo it, but must retype the whole line over again (a real pain when it was a long command). -- ~~~ Bruce ~~~ Computer Science Dept., University of Maryland {rlgvax,seismo}!umcp-cs!israel (Usenet) israel.umcp-cs@Udel-Relay (Arpanet)
