Hi,
In windows command prompt, F8 key can cycle through your previously entered commands i.e say you enter "ping google.com" and then "pushd <dir>". Next when you type p and then press F8 brings pushd and next F8 brings ping command. You can then hit enter to execute the corresponding command i.e ping in this case.
Is there anything similar in Ubuntu Terminal running bash? Very handy to get back previously entered commands.
Thanks!
