I'm sorry if the feature has already been implemented, I haven't heard of any way to implement it. This is what I was thinking of: Right now, if you run history, it will list out all the recently used commands, and then you could run !360 to run that history result. Often I'm looking for a specific command that I don't want to retype the options for. Instead of having to do history | grep commandname and then !###, just start typing !commandname and hit tab to see history entries that start with it.
