Hello Net,

2 history related questions:

   1 -   how to redefine "foo" (anything else, that is) instead of
         the "!" for the "YO UNIX, HISTORY COMMAND COMING UP"...
      
   2 -   if #1 works, how about defining something which will not
         require a <ret> (ala up arrow in vms) to retrieve the last
         command.   On the other hand, once i have the last command
         up, i want to change a character and only then unleash it
         with the appropriate <ret>

can do?

muchas gracias
