In bash, you can type ^R, then text, to search that text in history interactively. Hit ^R again, if you want to see another match of same text. It saves lot of typing.

It sucks though. The shortcuts are kind of annoying (Ctrl-r, Ctrl-s) and there's no visual cues about the list you're going through.
