Of course! I forgot about it. Mine is quite complete, in fact, but I made it several years ago.

But when you have played some time with ctrl-r, you'll never need this anymore.

ctrl-r is indeed more flexible since you can search by the middle, but I always search by the first letters... and <Up> is 1 key press less...

PHP Code:

# search in the history (up & down) "\e[A": history-search-backward "\e[B": history-search-forward

In my case, it is \eOA and \eBA (not sure why).

Thanks!
