I recently switched to powershell since my Cygwin bash started giving me senseless compilation errors when using maven. I’ve found how to save and restore my command history in (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9259723/is-there-a-windows-shell-tool-can-keep-history), which seems to work (using “History” will show the recent commands after a clean start).
What I can’t seem to do is access this history with the up arrow like you would if the command was used in the current session.
Any ideas?
You cannot. There is no API for accessing a console program’s history.
