[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] arrow keys

gallo@cs.albany.edu (Andy Gallo) (10/07/90)

	I'm looking for a PD program to give me arrow key control over
	the history of command line entries (up arrow for previous command
	in history, down arrow for next command in history, just like
	VAX/VMS and UNIX tcsh).

	Please respond via email.
	Thanks.

There are several utilities for this purpose such as the classic
dosedit, (/pc/sysutil/)anarkey3.zoo, (/pc/pd2)ced10da.zip, histry61,
commando and so on, available from ftp sites and BBSes.  Personally
I would perhaps recommend ced, but this is a matter of individual
taste.  If you have a unix background then maybe histry61.
