Command line history.

Have do i activate the command line history
on AIX 4.3.

When we had 3.2, it worked via ESC + minus symbol.

But on our new machine with AIX 4.3 it is not
yet configured.

Please mail me because i don't read this everyday
Thanks in advance,Joeri

 Command line history.

 aix 4.2 comes with ksh as default shell i guess 4.3 also.
 try set -o emacs to get emacs codes (ctrl-p,...) or
 set -o vi for vi-shortcuts.

 Command line history.

try (for KSH shells)

set -o vi
or
set -o emacs

Then use the vi or emacs commands for history.

vi:
ESC (command mode)
  k - up
  j - down
  h - left
  l - right
etc.

emacs:
  Ctrl-P - up
  That's all I know of emacs.  :)
