Hello All

 

I have downloaded ksh93 from the ATT download site and am running it on top of FC2.

 

The only issue I am having so far concerns history. Under bash, something has been set up so that if I use the UP arrow key, the bash shell scrolls through the .sh_history file from last entry to first. In a similar manner, the DOWN arrow key navigates from the next entry in .sh_history. This behavior is not working under my ksh93 implementation though the hist shell built in is working.

 

So, my questions are:

 

  • Does anyone know how the bash shell sets the UP arrow (and DOWN arrow for that matter) keys to cycle through the .sh_history file?
  • Does anyone know how I might be able to reproduce this behavior under ksh93?

 

Thanks in advance for any help.
