Performing Command Line Processing
Commands are not case sensitive. You can abbreviate commands and parameters if the abbreviations
contain enough letters to be different from any other currently available commands or parameters. You
can scroll through the last 20 commands stored in the history buffer, and enter or edit the command at
the prompt. Table 2-1 lists the keyboard shortcuts for entering and editing commands.
Performing History Substitution
The history buffer stores the last 20 commands you entered. History substitution allows you to access
these commands without retyping them, by using special abbreviated commands. Table 2-2 lists the
