hi,
i was searching for FreeBSD like command line history finally i found
this ..
Add following lines to /etc/inputrc

"\M-[A":history-search-backward
"\M-[B":history-search-forward
then type first 2 or 3 letters of the command you typed earlier and press arrow keys 

tell how do u feel with this :-)
