Keyboard shortcut for previous commands #171

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
I was just thinking that it would be helpful to map up/down on the scroll
wheel to previous/ next command similar to what the up/down arrows would do
in bash. Maybe map the shortcuts that are there to something else 

It sucks to keep retyping the same command, especially if it is a long one. 

Thanks for the well made app!

(I meant this as an enhancement not a defect)

This is really a shell function and not a terminal emulator. There's no way for 
the
terminal emulator to tell the state of the program.

Imagine you're in mutt or something and you press up and it tries to erase what 
it
thinks has been written on the line already and write the previous line. It 
would be
a disaster.

You should install a shell on your device that does what you want.
