Funny, I became FreeBSD user because default .cshrc contained it (iirc). I didn't know about shells, readline, etc. back then. Wonder why they do not enable it on up-down by default, cause I see too many linuxoids around bored with up-up-up-enter up-up-up-enter to replay history, not even knowing that completion exists (along with at least ^K ^U ^C).

What's the point to type a half-command and then replace input line with one from history if I press up? That somewhat resembles ugly cmd.exe, which every windows user imagines when someone says 'cli'.
