OK. I have an old G5 running Leopard and a Dell running Ubuntu 10.04 at home and a MacPro also running Leopard at work.
I use Terminal.app/bash a lot. On my home G5 it exhibits a nice feature: using ↑
to navigate history I get the last command starting with the few letters that I've typed.
This is what I mean (|
represents the caret):
$ ssh user@server
$ vim /some/file/just/to/populate/history
$ ss|
So, I've typed the two first letters of "ssh", hitting ↑
results in this:
$ ssh user@server
instead of this, which is the behaviour I get everywhere else :
$ vim /some/file/just/to/populate/history
If I keep on hitting ↑
or ↓
, I can navigate through the history of ssh
like this:
$ ssh otheruser@otherserver
$ ssh user@server
$ ssh yetanotheruser@yetanotherserver
It works the same for any command like cat
, vim
or whatever.
That's really cool. Except that I have no idea how to mimic this behaviour on my other machines.
Here is my .profile
