Terminator command history

  • 772

I have been looking into this - but I can't get previous entered commands in Terminator (multi-terminal). I have looked into the Preference but I don't see how it is done.

I know this is not really Ubuntu question, but I am sure many of you have used Terminator.

Does anyone know how to get the previous entered commands?

Thanks!

command-line

    You can try typing:

    history

    in your terminal.

    Or you could search it with CTRL-r.

  2. Also You can just use the up-arrow to see the previously used commands.

  3. Try with this:

    1. edit /etc/inputrc

    sudo vim /etc/inputrc

    1. uncomment or add this two line

      "\e[5~": history-search-backward

      "\e[6~": history-search-forward

    2. logout/login

    then try to write some command listed in history...

    like...

    ls -lah

    write

    ls

    and press

    page up

    If you did everything right it should auto-complete your command :)
