With csh, you can simulate CI's / and // commands by adding the following 
statements to your .cshrc file.

-----------------------------------
set history = 20
alias / 'history -h \!*; line>/dev/null; /bin/echo "\033J\033R\033A\033d\021\c"'
alias // 'history -h 2 | head -1;         /bin/echo "\033A\c"; line > /dev/null; /bin/echo "\033J\033R\033A\033d\021\c"'
--------------------------------------

I don't think it would be difficult to translate these into equivalent commands
for sh or ksh.
