Yep it does. I swear I was trying that earlier today and it wasn't working, but in fact it does. I must have been doing something wrong (y0<space>= then up arrow instead of just y0= then up arrow). Had I not given up trying, I could have saved a lot of wear and tear on my up arrow today ;)John Swensen wrote:One feature I have really like in Matlab and don't think would be too hard to implement in octave would be where the history is context sensitive. That is, if you start typing something, then start using the arrow keys, then it only completes with history items that match the first few characters typed. Since this is readline, maybe there is already some feature built into readline that provides the same feature, but with different keystrokes than matlab. Could someone comment on whether readline does provide this? Would you be open to this patch? John SwensenTry typing a few characters and then hitting the up arrow. Works for me. D.
