Using
history interactively
The History library provides
a history expansion feature similar to the history expansion in csh.
History expansion takes two parts. In the first part, determine which line
from the previous history will be used for substitution. This line is called
the event (see Event
designators). In the second part, select portions of that
line for inclusion into the current line. These portions are called words
(see Word designators).
GDB breaks the line into words in the same way that the Bash shell does,
so that several English (or UNIX) words surrounded by quotes are considered
one word.
The following documentation
describes how to use the GNU History Library interactively, from a user’s
standpoint.
