Since some tasks would be a bit repetitive (ex: "try to do this", "oh, I'm missing dependencies", "try to install them, then", "try to do the first thing again"), or simply because sometimes you want to do something multiple times (like checking the status of something etc.), it could be convenient to be able to use the arrow keys to loop through prompt history, just like we can do with a classic shell.
Since hey is running the expected commands under the hood, the executed commands are not inserted in the shell history, so having such a feature in the hey prompt/REPL could be a good alternative.
