HISTORY Copyright 1985-6 Michael M. Rubenstein HISTORY is a history processing terminate and stay resident program. It provides the ability to recall and edit previous commands and allows much more sophisticated editing than is found in the normal MSDOS system. Filename completion in HISTORY is limited to those filenames which have already been accessed and are in the history buffer. HISTORY.ARC is available from SIMTEL by FTP I modified History to provide for filename completion. It was posted some time ago on c.b.i.p, and it's archived on sun.soe.clarkson.edu, pub/pc/comp.binaries.ibm.pc/history.arc. If you can't ftp, send me mail and I'll put it up on the CUHUG BBS and you can call in and get it. -- --russ (nelson@clutx [.bitnet | .clarkson.edu]) Shuzan held out his short staff and said, "If you call this a short staff, you oppose its reality. If you do not call it a short staff, you ignore the facts. Now, what do you wish to call it?"
