[CLI] noob: why command history on linux doesn work, on windows
does
i just experienced this on a tool i use, so i questioned the maintainer
about. and he said that he has any clue. So please can you give me a hint
why command line history doesn't work:
a) its the tools code that does something wrong
b) its a general issue of CLI
c) its a general problem with linux environments and/or java
thank you, i just want to help who helped me with an great open source tool

What's banshee?
I'm guessing you're having a problem with the keymapping between your
local machine and your server.
How is this tied to Commons CLI? Its name is confusing as although it
calls itself a 'command-line interpreter', what it's interpreting are
the flags on a command line and is not a command line interpreter in
itself. So it's like a getopt/cargs tool and has nothing to do with
bash and shells.

no i use bash, I've verified , with banshee in the start script and all, but
when I press arrow up ig only get ^[[A on the command line. tried on two not
customized debian servers, should <CRTL>+R also work? only Ctrl+j for new
line worked. on the "real" shell everything its fine.
how do you interface to the shell from java? is there an interface in j2se
or how its done?
Thanks!

Rolans,
Unless I misunderstand the question -- the answer is [c]. Command line
history on Linux is a feature of the shell you are using. If you are
using the (pretty universal) bash shell then up-arrow does indeed work
just as in Windows. If you have another shell then you will need to read
the man pages.
On my machine "echo $SHELL" prints "/bin/bash"
