I particularly like the history mechanism which is enabled for the
default csh/tcsh with FreeBSD.  The recent usage of any command is
recalled by typing a few letters and then up arrow.  Bash probably
can do it too and would have similar 'TAB' file name completion.

But then - I remember thinking doskey was cool :)
