Retrieving previous commands

To retrieve the last command you entered, press PF12 (RETRIEVE). The retrieved command is displayed on the command line. You can make changes to the command, then press Enter to issue it.

To step backwards through previous commands, press PF12 to retrieve each command in sequence. If a retrieved command is too long to fit in the command line, only its last line is displayed.
