Yes, I noticed that it didn't show up in the archives.

This would work, except you pretty much have to know about this feature in order to use it, which is bad, in my opinion. Another way of improving the history commands would be to interactively show what will be expanded on a line below the prompt while typing. Something like: fish> rm *~ fish> pwd ~/code/c/fish fish> !rm Expands to: rm *~ Bash already shows you the expanded command, but it doesn't do so until it starts executing the command, which makes it a mostly useless feature, in my opinion. > > Xavier Douville -- Axel -- Axel ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
