tcsh hints --

You may bind e.g. F-keys to perform your 500-times-a-day commands by

   bindkey -c key-seq command

and it wont even hit the command history, if that's what you so badly want
to avoid.  You may even

   bindkey -c key-seq \!$EDITOR

if you know what I mean.

And a history-search-backward + newline function might be set up as

   bindkey -s key-seq '\ep\n'

See?  You enter the start of the command you want reexecuted and hit
the chosen key.....  Pling.
