After svn r244941 - which fixed a bug preventing ed-search-next-history
and ed-search-prev-history from working - this should be possible. To
bind them on "Page Up" and "Page Down":
- bind "\e[5~" ed-search-prev-history
- bind "\e[6~" ed-search-next-history

But as far as I know, even with those bindings /bin/sh is still missing
a way to save the command history to disk and load it back at startup.
