HELP Command
Considerations
If you use FC alone, the previous command is fixed (FC alone is the same as FC
1).
If you specify a negative number and the associated command line is no longer in
the history buffer, you will get an error message. The history buffer of command
lines is 1024 bytes in length.
The FC command does not increment the command line number in VHSCI prompt.
The display of command line numbers in the prompt is controlled by the
SETPROMPT command.
FC cannot be issued by a noninteractive user and is ignored if encountered.
Another command cannot follow the FC command on the same line.
For more information on the FC command, see the NonStop Kernel Operating
System User’s Guide.
