The FC (Fix Command) allows you to edit or repeat a previously executed command.

When you enter FC, the last command line you typed appears followed by the FC

prompt, a period (.), on the next line. At the prompt, you can enter the subcommands

R, I, and D to replace, insert, and delete characters in the command line. See the

Guardian User’s Guide for more information.

history-number

is the history-buffer number of the command to be edited or re-executed.

-history-offset

is a negative offset from the command that history-number represents. The

immediately preceding command is -1.

text

is a string of characters. If you provide text instead of history-number or

-history-offset, the FC option executes the most recently executed command

that begins with the string text.

The history-buffer number of the command specified by history-number,

-history-offset, or text must be less than or equal to the number of commands

in the history buffer, which is determined by SET HISTORYBUFFER (see SET on

page 5-42, particularly Example 5-8 on page 5-19). The default size of the history

buffer is 50 commands.

If you do not specify history-number, -history-offset, or text, the FC option

uses the previous command.

Note. This option works only in an interactive session.
