This is what I liked the most on the C-64.  Display a directory listing,
and edit the line to load the program (and of course I only had to type
a '/' in front of the line).  This is just a simple example,
but sometime it was really more sophisticated than that.  On the Amiga,
I use Snap.  Unfortunately, the 64 had no input history (hey, maybe
I could write one?  I'll add it to my long list of projects :-).
