There is a feature in termux (android) history command which when you use !371 to execute the command 371 in the command history it prints that command in the prompt instead of executing it, then you just press enter to execute it. I found it very useful because many times I want to execute a command that is in the history but with some modification, I’m using Konsole in my desktop PC and I couldn’t find an option to make such a thing. The only one I found is executing history -p !371, but that just print the command to stdout and not to the prompt itself.
EDIT: the answer is !371:p then up and the command 371 shows up in the prompt. Thanks Schizo!
I didn’t know that, it’s not what I was asking but it’s a cool command, thanks.
careful with it; i need the thing that you asked for too and crtl+r has been effective enough to prevent me to creating it.
but can you modify the command? I tried but I couldn’t.
For CTRL+R, once you see the command you want, hit ESC, and the command is there ready to edit.
idk if you’re having the same issue but unborking my $PS1 fixed this for me. left right arrow keys should let you edit the command.
yes. use the arrow keys to modify it before hitting enter
the answer is !371:p and then up!
