let me remind you that reverse search in tcsh is done by pressing


ALT-p

or for reverse order

    That’s still not the same as bash right ? ALT P shows you the previously executed commands but doesnt allow you to search. Unless I am missing something

    You’re right. It isn’t the same as ctrl+r in the bash. If you need to search through the previously executed commands, try
    history | grep SEARCHTERM
