	In the C-shell, the history mechanism allows you to save
	your most recent commands depending on the value of the `history
	`history' variable (history=20 saves most recent 20 commands).
	To access these commands, you use `!!' to get the last command
	executed.  There are other things you can do with the history
	mechanism too numerous to describe here.  I don't know about other
	versions of unix.
