How to search history using PgUp and PgDown

[hyperknot]

I used to use bash / msysgit before cmder. One feature missing from cmder is that in bash I could easily configure PgUp and PgDown to make an automatic history search based on the already typed command in prompt.

This was what I had to add to inputrc:

"\e[5~": history-search-backward
"\e[6~": history-search-forward

Now I've seen the Ctrl + R "reverse-i-search" functionality, but honestly this can not be compared to the automatic and efficient method of bash's history-search-...

Can you tell me how can I bind PgUp and PgDown to provide a similar history lookup function like bash?

Opened a ticket for it in clink, I guess that's the part of cmder where it's implemented.

Clink developer has solved this issue, the required keys are different in Linux and Windows. The correct ones are:

"\e`I": history-search-backward # page-up
"\e`Q": history-search-forward  # page-down

and it'll be in the next clink release: https://code.google.com/p/clink/issues/detail?id=177

I'll leave it open till it's implemented either by an updated clink release or a manual addition to clink_inputrc

Perfect, thanks!

page-up / down is scrolling up/down through my commands history just like up/down arrows do.

I think that's right from the descriptions provided. Re-open if this is incorrect please.
