How about  hmmmmm...   esc-p and esc-n    :-)
I think this is default.  (Logical extension to history-back
history-forward.  Kind of like parallel between char-forward and
word-forward in emacs)

And,  if you do the following in your .login or .tcshrc file, meta-p and
meta-n work.  How convient.  :-)

if ( $?prompt ) then
        if ( "`echotc meta`" == "yes" ) then
                 stty pass8
        endif
endif

The above I receive from some knowledgable person posting this group
about six months ago.  What comes around, goes around.


Cheers,

Chris
